- The Murdering field, which is beside our house, belongs to Mr. Fitzherbert, of the townland of Back Castle, in the parish of Navan, in Co. Meath. A woman was murdered in a wood in this field. She was buried out in the field, and her grave is to be seen.

- The Moat Field also belongs to Mr. Fitzherbert. This field is so called because there was once a moat in it. Some treasures are said to have been found in it. These treasures were kept in the drawing-room in Black Castle. They are now in museum. The treasures were one ruby, one diamond and an old spade.
