  1. Local Poets

    Share Share Post
    There is nothing in the district as regards any poets who lived there in older times. The only thing in connection with this is that there was an old blind Piper, named Billy Nash, who was well noted for his music at weddings, feast gatherings. His descendant's still reside in the village and locality, and play on the violin.
