Résumé du livre
Place-Names of Northern Ireland provides a revealing window on the land and its people. Many early Irish names for settlements, districts, hills, and rivers are still used today and most townland names are of Irish origin. This major new series on the place-names of Northern Ireland concentrates on townland names, dealt with in their traditional civil parish units. Parishes covered in this volume include Aghaderg, Annaclone, Donaghcloney, Dromore, Drumballyroney, Garvaghy, Magheralin, Magherally, Moira, Seapatrick, and Tullylish.
