  1. Local Place Names

    Share Share Post
    The name of one of the fields on my father’s farm is “The Square Meadow.” It is so called because it is as long as it broad.
    Another field is called “The Treasna.”
    There is also a field called “The Lower Field.” It is so called because it is the farthest away from the house.
    “The Hill Field,” is another field. It is so called because there is a hill in it.
