Explanatory note

Gaeilge

the small rocky land?
screallach — foirm de greallach? Cf. 1601 'the Gurliagh'. Féach leis screallach, 'barren land, stript bog' ag Ó Duinnín; scriollach = scileach, 'flaked rock' ag Ó Dónaill.
Féach leis "screallach = talamh árd clochamhail lom", Triocha-Céad Chorca Dhuibhne, 284. Is cosúil go dtagraíonn an t-ainm don phaiste carraigeach i dtuaisceart an bhaile fearainn seo (féach léarscáil ag www.epa.ie).
