"Pinkman: Cor-each-dhruim = Hill of the horse ridge. Cor or Corr – often written, and generally pronounced, Cora, corra – means ‘anything round.’ It is commonly used to denote a small round hill, usually flat on top. “Cor a round hill, a small topped hill.” (O’Donovan, Supplement O’Reilly). Sometimes the word is applied to a round pit or hollow. And, as an adjective, it may mean round, queer-shaped or odd-shaped, rough. "
