    Folklore .
    The name of a certain field in our farm is Gorry Nure. it consists of a very high hill with heath,ferns,and rushes growing in it.
    it got the name Gorry Nure because there lived a man in it long ago named Martin Nure.
    The ruins of his house are still there and it is called after the name Nure.
