n/a	"Pinkman: Achadh-Rúscaighe = Field of the marsh or moor. Rúscach, Rúscaighe, Rooskey in place-names (Dinneen). According to Joyce, Rúsc or Rúsg is a form of Riasc, a moor, a marsh or a fen. Though it is not given in the dictionaries, it is, he says, much used in the formation of place-names. The adjectival form, rúscach, is in still more general use and gives names to all those places, about 50, called Roosky, Rooskey, Rooskagh. (Joyce, Vol. I, page 463, Place-names). The Down Survey writes the name Agharasky, confirming what Joyce says."	Nóta Nóta eolais
