Explanatory note
- Gaeilge
the untidy/overgrown wood, upper
Cloítear leis na míreanna cáilithe Gaeilge Uachtair/Íochtair i gcásanna a bhfuil siad le fáil sa bhfianaise stairiúil (m.sh. 1617 'Coilsallaghoughter’); muna bhfuil fianaise dá leithéid, is iad Uachtarach agus Íochtarach a fhreagraíonn do na míreanna Béarla Upper agus Lower, faoi seach - English
the untidy/overgrown wood, upper
The Irish qualifying elements Uachtair/Íochtair are retained in names in which they are found in the historical evidence (e.g. 1617 'Coilsallaghoughter’); in all other cases, the English qualifiers Upper and Lower are represented by Uachtarach and Íochtarach respectively
