- Old houses
The people in Ardfield long ago made their own houses. Most of them were made of thatch and earthen floors. Most of them were made by themselves. There was a mason living in Brownstone named Michael O Regan. He made many of the houses in Farran. They had big open fireplaces with two holes in each side for holding salt and matches. They had a big hole in the bottom for the chickens. They had hangers for to hang the pots. They had a timber machine in some of the old houses. They used a turnip with a hole in the midle for a candle-stick.
