Michael Brady Lisatoo Laragh CavanThe place names I know are Kettoes Lane, Kettoes street Kettoes field the bush field the cherry tree field and the well field.
Kettoes Lane is so called because a woman named Kettoe lived there. The street is called Kettoes street because her house was built there. The field is called Kettoes field because she was the owner of it.
There was a big bush in the bush field.
The whiny field was covered with whins at one time.
The well field is so called because there is a big well in it.
