  1. The name of the district in which I live is Kippenduff. There are about eight families living in Kippenduff. Most of the old houses are thatched but the new ones that are getting built now are slated. I never heard how Kippenduff got its name. There are three old people living in it. They do not know Irish. I never them telling any stories either in Irish or English. There are two ruins of old houses in my district. The land of Kippenduff is rich. There are no bogs, rivers or lakes in Kippenduff.
