- The name of an old hedge school is to be seen in Lismacanican. A man of the name of master Caldwell taught in it. Children had no books in the penal days and the master used to have to write the subjects on slates. The also had no sitting accomodation. They used to pay the master with vegetables and sometimes the would have a collection for him.
