  1. There are three fields in (William Dowlings) farm that got names long ago. One of them is called the Church field because people were buried there long ago before the Church was built at all. The field is called Tober Caoch because there is a well in it which is always covered with moss. We often try to clean it but it is covered again as soon as we stop cleaning it. There is an other of the fields above the road which is called Mickies field after a man by the name of Mickey that owned it a long time ago.
