- Tomb-stories
In Love's field [] there are some tombstones but there are no designs on them as they are blotted out all we could see on some of them was y. As this field was often ploughed by loves it is impossible to make out the graves. In another corner of the field there is an altar stone where a priest used to say mass long ago in the penal days. The place where the book was left is visible also. A deep hole in the stone where holy water is and also a thing like a square cut out in the top of the stone.
