   (continued from previous page)

   Here we have the projecting ditch again & it works
   southern limit of old parish of Toem (map page 78) & incidentally the boundary between the Baronies of Killnamovagh & ClonWm.

   Here we are again. The same mark and by extension to find it used in Bally Caoimghin to mark the entrance tot he house wh. the priest was usually to be got during penal times.

   The gate is crowned with plain Latin cross. Indication that a priest once lived here, or, as some people say, an indication that there was a priest to be had here during penal days.
