- Long ago before the coming of St Patrick in Paddy Regan's field there was a town which was called Jamestown. It has the same name yet and the walls of the town are standing there yet but the grass and the earth are starting to cover it now. It is much likke a moat but it is square. The people of the place say that there was once a very big (th) town there and the foundation on the town is there yet.
