Explanatory note

  • Gaeilge

    the bracken of the monk

    Is deacair raithean “bracken” agus ráithín “(little) ring-fort” a idirdhealú uaireanta. Cuir foirmeacha stairiúla thosach an logainm seo i gcomparáid le bf Ráithín na mBróg (#27786) sa pharóiste céanna. Ní mhaireann aon iarsmaí d’aon imfhálú anseo a dtabharfaí ráth/ráithín air (www.archaeology.ie). Le bf Tulaigh Lobhair (#27796) a bhain an seanteampall in iarthar an bhaile fearainn seo, is cosúil.
