"bruigh sometimes denotes 'a farm'" [dúch];

"There is an old fort in this townland and the ruins of a church, both near the road" [Desc. Rem.];

"Templebree... which I conjecture from its name Teampull na Bruigh... Everyone in the neighbourhood whom I met with called it a Cashel...Perhaps the name Cashel applied to it, is the first part of the name Cassel-Irra? It receives the latter part of the name, viz., na Bruigh (Brugh) from Bruch Mor, an extensive marsh, which is covered at high water, and gives the name to the townland of Bree, in the southern part of which it lies. Brugh is the name for a marsh in this country and the genitive form of the word is pronounced Brooeeyh. (140) I have stated that Teampall na Bruigh (Templum Maritimi Campi) is a modern building. I state now after further information, that Templenabree is not built within a Caiseal and that there is no Caiseal near it.... (79) You have stated that Brugh or Bruigh is understood in Connaught to mean a marsh, but I fear that this is an inference of your own. Is Bruigh universally understood to signify marsh?"
