  1. The Townland I Live in

    Share Share Post
    The townland in which I live is called Crehennan. It is in the north-east of Inishowen. It is bounded on the north by a mountain. There are pillarstones in this townland. There are about forty houses, and about 200 people living in it. There is a river at each side of this townland. One of the rivers is called the Cabry river, and the other river is called the Crehennan river.
