De réir dealraimh ba é an píosa talún seo a bhí i gceist le 1569 ‘Agholallor’ (ag Piggott, F 1386), 1609 ‘Agholalor ... parcel of the estate of the O’Moores, attainted’ (ag Wakeman, CPR 127b) < Achadh Uí Leathlobhair “the field of Ó Leathlobhair” (?).

Seo na teorainneacha de réir F 1386 (1569):

• ‘Agholallor extending eastward to the high road near a hill called Shyan moyglas [cn Sián Maí Glaise (#1419166), bf Baile Phaoil (#28252)],

D’fhéadfadh sé gurb é an sloinne Ó Tomaltaigh atá sa cháilitheoir, sloinne a ndearnadh Hamilton de i Loch Garman (féach Ó Crualaoich, Logainmneacha na hÉireann IV (LG) s.n. Ballyhamilton).
