pasture of (the) sieve?
Réitíonn an fhianaise stairiúil le reithear (féach Dinneen s.v.; www.dil.ie s.v. rether). Taispeánann an fuaimniú áitiúil (2005) cailliúint -th- láir (le fadú cúitimh) atá comónta sa chontae seo agus ar fud an oirdheiscirt (cf. nótaí faoi bf Croithleach (#28092), srl.).
Tá an baile fearainn seo suite ar imeall portaigh, mar a fhaightear go minic le cluain-ainmneacha (féach Ó Cearbhaill, Logainmneacha na hÉireann III). Ní féidir a chur as an áireamh ar fad, áfach, gur cloch “stone (structure)” atá san aicmitheoir ó cheart: cf. 1563c ‘Clohin-’ agus 1563 ‘Clough-’. Cuir i gcás go ndearnadh Clon- den chéad eilimint in bf Cloch Lathaí (#28774). Tá cur síos fada ar an gcaisleán Clonreher Castle (in ruins) SO san Fhardal Seandálaíochta (‘Probably owned by the O’Dowlings’, www.archaeology.ie — is i bhFearann Ó nDúllaing a bhí sé (cf. par An Bhuiríos (#1424)).
