  1. Glenafana
    Glenafana is situated west of Ballyhooly between the townlands of Rahard and Convamore.
    Long ago water was flowing through it but there is no stream there now.
    The good people it is said used to be heard hurling in a field of Mr John Aherne's beside the road.
    The noise of hurleys and whistles was heard.
    There are only two farm houses in the townland now.
