    There is a field on Mr Ml. Noonan's land (Galbally) called the Coursing Field because coursing used to be held there.
    There is a field in Stantons of Keylogues called Scully's Field because a man by the name of Scully lived there long ago and a girl of the Scullys lives there now. There is another field in Mr Stanton's called the Bare Field because there is no grass on it.
