- In a certain place call Pubble there is a big hill in a field and it is like a heart. The people said that in the days of the Penal Laws the congregation used to go into the fort and say Mass for them.
In another place int he same field people were digging and they found burnt stones and bones of deer and horns and that proves that the Fianna were once in Tipperary, because they used to heat stones and then cook the meat on them.
