- For a chronic cold and "pains" some local people make a plaster of "the good of the cow" (Cow manure)
Once a man here in Crockraw was very ill and the local landlord went to see him. The landlord was tipsy as usual. He found the man in bed with a plaster of this kind on him, He got the man to get up. And he was a very hairy man. The landlord took him home and turned a hose on him. Then he clipped him with a horse clippers.
The man took the landlord to the law but the case was settled on payment of £50. Record from Old Court House Churchhill
(Burned during the Tan war)
