Explanatory note

  • Gaeilge

    the corner, nook of the alder-trees
    corner, nook of (the) field

    Tá an dara hainm pléite faoi bf Cúil Achaidh Bheag (#28599).

    Díol spéise nach raibh an chéad ainm in úsáid in aimsir na Súirbhéireachta (1838 ‘Coolaghy is the only name now known’) ach mar sin féin tá an fhianaise soiléir. Do 1549 ‘Coylucffarnok’ léigh ‘Coylneffarnok’.

    Mionainmneacha ar an léarscáil:

    1. Kilnahown Bridge SO, Kilnahown Wood SO < Coill na hAbhann “the wood of the river”, talamh léirithe mar ‘underwood’ ar DS (1655).
    2. Shanavalagh SO < An Seanbhaile (?) “the old town”. Féach go dtugtaí ‘the Old-town meadow’ ar shuíomh an tseantí a bhí ag muintir Dawson díreach le hais an tí mhóir nua Cúirt Ioma (#28462) (Fitzgerald, JKAS IV 195) — sa chás seo tá an Shanavalagh SO díreach laistiar de Woodbrook House SO agus is ar éigean gur seanbhealach “old way, route” atá ann. Pé ar domhan de, díol suntais an guta cúnta i ndiaidh sean-, gné a shamhlaítear le canúintí an deiscirt.
