- When the black and tans came over to Ireland. They burned many houses in this parish such as Pat Holohans and Peter Mac Arthurs in Knockbeha and Tom Moloney's in Feakle. They also ordered John O'Mara's house but an old peeler told them not. Why they burned these houses in revenge because the rebels took an active part in the rising and the owners gave them food and Danny Mc Namaras house in Feakle was burned also.
