- the implement they used to grind the oats was “grind stones” which were called “querns”. Some of these grind stones exist yet. There is one of them at Mr. Mc Nulty’s about a hundred yards from my home. It is made of cement and there is a whole in the top to put the oats down through. The names of the different kinds of bread made were potato cake, boxty bread, oat meal bread, and rye-bread.
