  2. Historic Sites - The Altar Park

    Share Share Post
    This is a field owned by the previously mentioned Brigid McBride, Dooish. It adjoins the main road and has the bridle path on its western side. It is very rocky, full of boulders, some of which have been blasted and removed for road metal. Brigid McBride told us that the altar or even its site was never known within her memory. She had never heard when or why it had got the name "Altar Park" - nor had never heard of any priest using it for Mass in penal times.
