(oak-)wood of (the) stony place
Tá paistí carraigeacha léirithe anseo ar an gcéad eagrán de léarscáil na Suirbhéireachta Ordanáis; cf. léarscáil cháilíocht talún ar www.epa.ie.
An t-ainmfhocal doire a bheith neodrach sa tSean-Ghaeilge is cúis leis an urú (gC-), is dócha (féach www.dil.ie s.v. daire) - English
(oak-)wood of (the) stony place
The first edition Ordnance Survey map shows areas of rocky ground here; cf. land quality map on www.epa.ie.
The eclipsis (gC-) is probably due to the noun doire having been neuter in Old Irish (see www.dil.ie s.v. daire)
