    The Cooláchs - (Cúl Áth)

    Reilig na bhFeara nGonta - Clashoquirke, Bansha

    The Reilig where the men who were killed in the "Battle of the Hills and Hollows" were buried. It is at the back of T. (?) Ryan's farm-house, near Castle Mary. Perhaps about 100 years ago an attempt was made by the farmer who owned the Reilg, to till it. So many bones were turned up that he decided to put them back and leave it as it was.

    Áth na gCíléiri - where the "keelers" (milk tubs) were weighted and left in the river so that the wood became swollen (joinings closed up) and so prevented leaking.
