   Páirc na gCoiníní -
   This field gets its name from the huge number of rabbits which are to be found there. As the name indicates, the pest must have remained all down through the ages for many generations.
   The Cluain -
   This field gets its name from its being a large, level field. The word cluain means a plain and this field well nigh represents one.
   Cash's Field -
   A poor man named William Cash once lived in a little house in a corner of this field. When he died the house was knocked down. The name was given to the field and it remained on it ever since.

   This field gets its name from a large spring well which is situated in it.
