The lower ends are trimmed to chisel and wedge points with a range of flat and concave tool facets some of which are very long (L 0.18m). A scatter of broken hazel brushwood (diam. 0.018-0.05m), twigs and an ash roundwood (diam. 0.08m) is located at the NW end of the site. The ends of some of the brushwood are worked to wedge points but most are simply broken or torn.

A townland is the smallest land division of Ireland, and the unit of a rural address; old registers such as the 1901 and 1911 censuses file it under its civil parish and barony.

---

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
