angle, a small circular lios. A small detached portion (4 A.) of the townland 

 forms the apex of the Marino promontory. This seems to indicate that the 

 point in question was formerly joined to Belvelly major by continuous dry 

 land where is now a mud flat.

 original Clonmel or part thereof. Area, 30 A. 



' On this townland stands the ruined church of the parish within the 

 ancient cemetery of Clonmel. The cemetery is now of great extent, and, at

 buried the victims of the " Lusitania " disaster. The small ruined church is 

 a comparatively late structure, and hardly deserves description as an antiquity. 

 Its side-walls stand about 18 feet high. Beside the doorway, on the outside, 

 is a small standing stone inscribed — as was frequent at the period of its 

 erection — in freakishly mixed large and small letters : —
