Explanatory note

  • Gaeilge

    the palisade

    Focal iasachta é briotás ó bretesche na Sean-Fhraincise (brattice sa Nua-Bhéarla); luaitear é le caisleáin Angla-Normannacha de ghnáth. Níl aon iarsmaí seandálaíochta sa bhaile fearainn seo, áfach, agus tá seans gur bhain an briotás áirithe seo leis an bprióireacht i gCill Mhaighneann lastuaidh.

    Cf. bf Baile Briotáis (#28286) i bparóiste Lé.

    Mionainmneacha ar an léarscáil:

    1. Ní heol dúinn stair an ainm Black Craft Well SO (recte Black Croft?).
