    My father as a lovely farm. There are various names on each field. Namely 1) the nine-acre field. 2) The Orchard 3) The lock field. 4) The Riasg. There is a story told about this field. One day a priest was saying mass on the side of a hill on top of a big stone and a crowd of people were answering it for him.
    In the middle of mass a crowd of soldiers came suddenly and killed himself and the people. The stone is there yet. There is a field called the furrow-hill. It is full of rabbits, foxes, badgers, and horses
