    There are two forges in our Parish John Clear and Mike Delahunt,
    No their people have not been Smiths for many years. One is on Sopwell and one in Shinrone. The door is of no special shape.
    I don't know how many fire places are inside.
    The, Smiths shoe horses and asses but not cattle.
    I don't know whether there is work done in the open air.
    I don't know whether people send them gifts or not.
