- Some distance from my house there is a field which is called the Race Course Field. How it got that name, was, because there were a races held there year ago.There are old lanes around this district. One of them is known as Payne's-Lane. The reason it got that name was people by that name lived there. There is a stream which is called lough leitrim. This stream flows outside Carney.There are more streams called the Mine river, The White Stream, The Red Boy River.There are a few more old lanes Bells Lane, The Baheen Lane, Heel-Fires Lane, Bats Lane, The Long Lane.
