Mr Pat Horrigan of Ashley Park owns the ferny field.
There was a field where Loughorna Lake now stands. It was owned by Mr Atkinson. on the fifteenth of August about one hundred and fifty years he asked his men to cut the corn. They refused, and said they had to go to Mass. They went and Mr Atkinson went out to the field. He cut some of the corn. When dinner-time came he went in and ate it. While he was within a spring arose from under the ground and covered the whole field. From that day the Lake was called "Loughorna" or Barley Lake.
