Use the links on the right-hand side of the page to find out more about the clachan and the townland in which it is situated.  Unfortunately, at the moment there is not much more information available.

If you find the Griffith's Valuation difficult to understand then you should read this. Unfortunately, the Griffith's maps are not always easy to read.
