Braid-Shliabh mentioned in the Annals of the Four Masters at the year 1586, is now called Braidh-Shliabh and should be anglicised Bralieve. It lies four miles south of the Town of Dromahaire, on the boundary of the Counties of Leitrim and Sligo. Some say it is five and others that it is seven miles long. The direction of its bridge is nearly northwest. It is called Braulieve on Larkin’s Map.” ” 133/263 "
