    Druminduff. This forge owned by Mick and Pat Fitzpatrick.
    There was another house in the "angle" at the New Inn Post -office in the last century and part of this century. It is said that in olden times there was a "Burroughs" or "village" there.
    At the back of the hill there was a "dug-out" which was called the "old warhouse," where people hid in war. There are no traces of this dug-out now, but the old people can still point out its position.
