    "The Garra Gheel" got its name from (-) that it being a narrow field.

    "Crois an Phobal" got its name from the fact that in the penal days when the priests were not allow to say mass they went to a lonely spot so "Crois an Phobal" was one of these places.

    The Chapel field derived it name from the fact that there was an old thatched house which served as a Chapel.
