    The "Grey stones field" is the name given by the people of this locality to one of my fathers fields. It is not a rocky or stoney soil, the name was given to it because it is int he top left hand corner of that field that the Giants grave is seen.
    The stones are large grey ones and it is from these the field is named "The Grey-stones field".
