Explanatory note
- English
half-glen
Ní cinnte cén bhrí ba chirte a thuiscint as a leithéid seo d'ainm, taobh amháin den ghleann nó gleann amháin as péire. Tá samplaí eile i gContaetha Fear Manach agus Thír Eoghain, ach is dócha gurb é an leithgleann is mó le rá in Éirinn le fáil i gContae Cheatharlach, mar atá Seanleithghlinn/Oldleighlin (#1412390).
