n/a
Ní don áit seo a thagraíonn Knockanenybohily (AL: Jac. I, Inq. I 275, anno 1614) ach do limistéar éigin talún a bhí i gcomharsanacht Carrigacashell (bar. Duhallow, p. Clonfert, SO 14.22) sa chontae céanna is nach maireann anois. Deineann an Buachallach Cnocan Hi Croingilla (CrC 174.5) a ionannú leis an áit seo (Ó Buachalla 1950 b91) ach dhealródh sé gur tuairim gan bhonn í agus a rá gur le tearmann Bhrí Ghabhann a luaitear é (ibid). Dá mb’ionann an tseanfhoirm seo agus Knockanenabohilly, ba dhóigh le duine go mba le seantuath Eoghanacht Glennomnach (CrC 172.3) a luafaí í, dála Doire Hi Thnuthgaili agus Cathair Droinne, an dá áit ar idir eatarthu atá Knockanenabohilly suite.
