- There is a large estate of land near this school called Drewstown. This estate was a prosperous one. The people who lived there, owned their own hounds. There are a lot of fields in this estate and in one of them there is a hill with a large hole in the side of it. In it is kept ice and that is why it is called the Icehouse. If you follow the passage you will fall down in a big hole.
