  2. My Own District

    Share Share Post
    I live in the townland of Crossforts, in the parish of Castleterra, in the barony of Upper Lougtee.
    There are three families in it.
    The houses are thatched.
    There are no people over seventy living.
    In former times there used to be seven houses and now (three) there are only three.
    One family emigrated to America.
    It is all good land.
    There is part of a Plantation still in Crossforts.
    There are no rivers, lakes nor streams in it.
