Power — Place-Names and Antiquities of S.E. Cork, 195 



Clais a' Duine Mhairbh— " Trench of the Dead Man " ; now a long timber 

 screen. 



Pairc na Muc— "The Pigs' Field." 



Paircin Fan — " Fan's Little Field." Fan here appears to be a woman's 

 name. I heard from two independent sources that the field embraces the site 

 of a former graveyard. 



An Claidh Eamhar — " The Broad Bank." This is a wide earthen fence, 

 bordered by a stream at either side, and leading towards Carrigtohill village. 

 The feature suggests the remark that, in low-lying country liable to floods, 

 a wide " ditch " of this type is often used as a quasi-public footpath. 

 Occasionally, indeed, such a fence is so utilised — without any constraint from 

 floods. This kind of combination path and fence is usually called " a double 

 ditch." 



Paircin a' Chodalta — " Little Field of the Sleeping." Somnolency is to be 

 here understood in a quasi-passive sense. 



Eibhlin Creaga ; meaning unknown. David Barry, grandson and name- 

 sake of the poet, and himself an Irishean of no mean order, suggests Oilean 

 Creaga ; aidhlean means also a palace or mansion. I fear I must leave 

 it at that. 



Carhoo, Ceathramha — " Quarter." Area, 97 A. 



The "Quarter" was an ancient Irish land measure — somewhat variable, 

 but generally equal to about 120 acres. 



Carrigane, Carragan — " Little Bock." Area 432 A. 



Carrigan (D.S.E.). 



There is a reputed holy well on Carter's farm ; " rounds " were made there 

 within living memory. 



S.DD. Mointean na Baibe — " Little Bog of the Bape Crop." 



Leath Hama — " Half Harues " ; a field so called from some resemblance 

 to the dimidiated article of horse-attire. 



Cnoc Buidhe — "Yellow Hill " ; presumably from colour of the blossoming 

 furze. 



Bothairin Nora — "Nora's Little Eoad." 



An Log — " The Hollow " ; a sub-div. 



Bairc na Mainistreach — " The Monastery Field," on east boundary of the 

 townland.
