    Folklore.
    In my farm we have a field and it is called Hynse's field and the reason is it got that name it a man of that name lived in it.
    In our mountain there is a rock and it is called "Carraig an Aifrinn"because it is said that in the time of the "Penal days"priests used to say Mass on it.We have another field called "Tobar an Tsúir"because there is a spring well in it.
