    The townland is hilly but not boggy. It is very good land. There are no woods growing on it.
    There are two rivers on its boundry. There are no history attached to them. There was a man living in it named Dr Stuard he wrote some of these poems.

  2. Home Thoughts

    Oh dreams a wearied dreams you come to my soul today.
    The cold of nights is in my heart and
    the mornings hope is gray.
    The spring will bring its flowers again and the winter come with snow
    But oh, they,ll never bring to me my own dear Tullycoe.
    For oh: my heart is weary for that dear old hill side.
    And the little white-washed cottage where my poor mother died.
