  1. A Local Story

    Share Share Post
    About three miles from Nenagh in the townland of Carriganagh there lies on the ruins of an old school. It is about a hundred years ago since the school was there. This little school was only a night school and it was for those who could not go in the day. My grandfather went to school there. No one knows what was the end of it but I think it must be the English who put an end to it.
    In the townland of Carriganagh there is also a field called the Chapel Field the reason why it is called that name is, there used be mass said there when the English were in Ireland.
