- The Lousy field.
When Cromwell's soldiers were on their way to Drogheda they entered the church in Habourstown and took a statue out of it. They cut the arms off it and threw it into a ditch. As it was too late to go any further they slept in a field near the church for the night.
Next morning when they awoke they were covered with vermin and ever since it is called the "Lousy field".- Collector
