Explanatory note

Gaeilge

the corner, nook of the herb-garden

Tá beagán éiginnteachta ag baint leis an dara heilimint san ainm seo, ach ar an iomlán, réitíonn an fhianaise le lúghort (lubgort “herb-garden”, DIL).
English

the corner, nook of the herb-garden

There is some uncertainty about the origin of the second element here, but overall, the evidence supports derivation from lúghort (lubgort “herb-garden”, DIL).
