    There are names on every field in the parish of Tullaroan. The names of our fields are the Closh the Clover, the heather, the Pin, and Long fields.
    The Closh is the name given to a field because there are rushes growing in it. The Clover is the name given to a field because there is clover growing in it.
    There is a bush in Reimeen bush and whenever a funeral passed by that bush long ago they stood and said some prayers for the dead.
