- There is a hill at the north-west side of the village It is owned by Mr. O'Donoghue, but at that time it was owned by Mr. Thomas Moroney. The hill was called the "Fair Green" There was fair held twice a year on the hill, one on the 12th of January, and on the 17th of March. There are no fairs held now.About fifty years ago, the people of Herbertstown refused to pay their rents until they got a reduction Many of the people were evicted. On this hill many meetings were held, and the late Rev. Father Ryan of Knockavilla, Co Tipperary, (who was at that time curate in Herbertstown Parish) advised the tenants to adopt the "Plan of Campaign" and he called the hill "Campaign Hill"). At that time it was an open common, but now it is surrounded by a wall, and the place is private.
