- There are many fields around this locality which have names on them.There is a certain field near here belonging to Mr Asple Galbally Ballyhogue Co.. Wexford Barony of Bantry, and it is called the Kiln Field. It is so called because there is a very old kiln in it.
There is also another field belonging to the same man called the Cow Field because long before Mr Asple began farming it was kept specially for the cows. Ever since it is called the Cow Field.
