    There are many places in this vicinity having names. There are special names on some fields such as,
    Tillage Field
    Stack's field,

    Big Meadow
    Cow's field
    Coill-óg
    and the hill.
    Some time ago there was a field tilled for a long time and it is called The Tillage Field since. The stacks field is a meadow where they used to make the stacks of corn always. Priest Place is a place of five fields. It was a bought from a Priest by my grandmother. Long fields are two long meadows. The Big madow is the largest meadow we have. Cows Field is a field where the cows are always grazing. Coill-óg means the young wood. The Hill is a very hilly field where the calves are always grazing. The vicinity which I live in is Knockbeha which means the hill of the birch.
