“There were many women in Coachford experts at making crochet...”
There were many women in Coachford experts at making crochet, one of them was Ellie Long as was also her daughter Mrs Sullivan, Clontead. This was carried on extensively about 35 years ago. Mary Ryan was also a great crochet maker. She is now dead. Miss Katie Murphy, Chapel Rd, was a crochet maker also.
There was a nailer in Coachford named Foley, he was also drummer in the Coachford fife-and-drum band some 40 yrs ago.- Collector

- There is a well in Roovesbeg which is called "Tobar Domhnaigh". People come paying rounds there. There are broken cups and eggstands and safety pens left there by the pilgrims. It is about two miles from Coachford and near Rooves bridge.
