- It was the custom in this district to make what were called St Brigid's Crosses on the night before St Brigid's Day. Two pieces of sticks were placed in the shape of a cross & straw was woven around them. The crosses when made were hung over the doors in the house. They were supposed to ward off evil during the year and to prevent the devil from entering the house. The following saying is still used in the district:
St Brigid's Cross hangs over the door
And does the house from devils secure.
On the night of the 31st January the old people used to have tea, bread and butter for supper, instead of porridge and milk.
