   Ait Ainmneaca Cloca Dubha this part of a strand gets its name because it is all black stones that are there. Cnocán Clocs these fields got their names because there were heaps of stones there once but later on all these stones were drawn away and put in fences. Na Páircí Beaga these fields got their names because they are so small Na Paircí Lár these are fields which are in the centre
