- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)Long ago the fairs were held on the Monday after Epiphany, March the 10th, Holy Thursday, August the 24th and Big Market Saturday which was held on the Saturday before Christmas.

Tents are erected in the Market Place and trading used go on even before the market itself began. All kinds of ware used be sold including suits of clothes, bed clothes and various other woollen articles. Cattle, sheep and horsesware sold as well as a large quantity of fowl.
