  1. I know a stone that is in a field. It's a cross and there are two or three stones on top of it. It is built up. It is in a green field. There are four big stones Stucks as they call them, in Rahard land. It was the foundation of an old Monastery an old Chapel.

  2. There is a moat on Michael Punketts land (Pootlereagh). He took some of the stones of it and only he stopped taking the stones of it he wouldn't be there. That moat was built with lime and sand and Stephen Roe before him took stones of it.
