    There is a field in a farm in the townland of Lahard in the Parish of Killeshandra called the "Two Cock Place". It is so called because there grew two cocks of hay in it.
    There is a lane in a farm in the townland of Drumgerd in the Parish of Killeshandra called Haulten's lane. It is so called because there lived a family called Haulten at the end of the lane.
