the town of the mill

In ainneoin a shoiléire is atá bunús an logainm san iontráil 1594 ‘Ballemollen alias Miltowne’, iarsmaí de mhuileann níl le fáil inniu (www.archaeology.ie). Tá cúpla sruthán sa bhaile fearainn.

Mionainmneacha ar an léarscáil:
1. Ní léir cad atá sa dara heilimint den mhionainm Knocknagreenagh SO ar an talamh ard (142m) i dtuaisceart an bhaile fearainn. Tá talamh chlochach sa chuid áirithe seo den chnoc (‘lithosols’, www.epa.ie; cf. Quarry SO 25ʺ) — cf., b’fhéidir, www.dil.ie 2 gríanach “gravelly”. (Focal eile ar fad atá i gceist in 1440c ‘ar fonn ngrianach nGailine’, tagairt don cheantar seo in Topographical Poems .i. www.dil.ie 1 gríanach “sunny, bright”.)
