n/a	"Pinkman: Cluain-Cuach = Meadow of the cuckoos. Where they may have appeared early in the season. Cluain-cuach has the authority of O’Donovan and Joyce. The Down Survey writes the name, Clonconge and Cloncongoe. These forms are not unlike Cluain-Cuinge, meadow of the narrow neck of land. But the local pronunciation is against that."	Nóta Nóta eolais
