  2. In the townsland of Ballycloughduff there is a bush called "Langans Bush," and there is a rock behind this bush where mass was said about seventy years ago. The name of the priest that said mass was Father Langan. This priest lived in a stone hut in Foxes field. There is no rock here now. Ever since this bush is called "Langans Bush," as Father Langan said mass there.
