Description
Set of index cards describing some of the local features of Úraid, [Oorid]. A note on the O'Malley family who were are prominent here. A local story of a crock of gold, also mentioned in Mac Giollarnáth's 'Annála Beaga' is relayed here. Brief descriptions are given of Loch an Roisín, Clochar, Loch ó Dheas, Tulaigh Liagáin (a note and illustration of a structure found to be a sheltering wall for sheet, the first such discovery by archaeologists in central Connemara south of the Galway to Clifden road). Tulach an Bhroic, Sruthán Uí Chonghaile, Loch na gCrámh, Tulach na Reilige, and Loch an Óráin are all given brief descriptions. Local man Billy Maguire, Jo O'Malley of Seana Chaola, and Peter Joyce of Úráid are all credited as being local sources of information. Mike Gibbons and Seán O Nualláin helped with the identification of the structure in Tulaigh Liagáin in autumn 1986.
