• Barony : Decies-without-Drum

Tuairisc:
This is a small and unimportant division. Two of its townland (mountain) names, Deighric and Breo, defy analysis, and are evidently, like many mountain and most river names, of great antiquity. The names quoted designate two remarkable dome- shaped hills, which because of their resemblance and contiguity are grouped together in local reference.
