  1. The Penal Times

    Share Share Post
    In the penal times the priests said mass in a hallow in Lowertown. Lowertown is three miles East of Mount Bolus. The people used to go and hear mass in that hallow. The hallow was deep and no one could see them. Ever since the hallow is called Chapel Hallow. The field is belonging to Kieran Devery.
