It is also very wet all the year round.There is a field in Cappatagle belonging to Michael Loughnane called "Cruach Gabh" it was called so because a blacksmith lived in it and it was called after him."Cró na muc" so called because it belonged to Mr. Carty of the Mail Road. The land is in the Mail Road. This man used always keep pigs in it. Therefore it was called after him.There is a field in our land in Callatagle called the "Church Field" It is so called because there is the ruin of an old Church in it.
