  1. An Old School

    Share Share Post
    There was an old school near the quay of Dromineer. The windows were dark and big. The school-master's name was Mr. Walsh.
    There were about 300 children attending the school. The scholars used sit on the floor on bags. Mr Walsh sat on a small stool in front of his pupils.
    There is a field at the back of the school where the scholars used to play.
    Children attended this school from Puckane, Dromineer, Kildangan and Carrig. In 1790 this school ceased. The ruins of this school are still to be seen near Dromineer.
