"It was formerly a track of waste mountain and was claimed by no particular person, but of late years there has several poor people settled upon it and cultivated about 58 acres which produce oats and potatoes. They are however free from any rent, cess or tithe at the present time. There is a lawsuit at present concerning the townland which until settled it is a matter of doubt whether it belongs to the parishes of Templeport or Tomregan." [Desc. Rem.]; "This townland is given to Tomregan. See [Mr] Griffith minute 28 Augt 1835" [dúch dearg];
