Explanatory note

the wood of/at the green fields, lea-fields?

Tá bunús an cháilitheora éiginnte anseo.

‘Tulach’, ‘cnocán’ a bhíonn i gceist le mullán de ghnáth ach is minic a bhuailtear leis i logainmneacha Chúige Laighean agus gan de bhrí aige, is cosúil, ach ‘gort’ nó ‘páirc’ (cf. bf Coill an Mhulláin (#28803).

Ainmneacha stairiúla:
I dtuaisceart an bhaile fearainn seo léiríonn Ford SO suíomh an tseanátha 1549 ‘Aghnenyagh’, 1654c ‘the horse foord’, 1783 ‘Anianagh ford’ (léarscáil de Chill Dara) < Áth na nEach “the ford of the horses”, an bealach trasna na Glaise (#1417407) ó Chlann Mhaoilíora aduaidh.
