  2. A Field
    There is a field at the back of Captain Tottenhams and the name given to it is Church Field. There was a church built on that field in Colonel Synge's time. It was a Catholic Church and it was knocked the time Mount Callan House was built. There are signs of graves there still where little children were buried.
    Some of the children that were buried there were Protestants. It wasn't a very big church. Since then the field is called Church Field.
