Corraniernaとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Corranierna is a townland in the Parish of Tomregan, Barony of Tullyhaw, County Cavan, Ireland. The townland name is an anglicisation of the Gaelic placename “Cor an Iarna” which means ‘The Hill of the Skein (of thread)’, which derived its name from the weavers who lived there. On the 1609 Ulster Plantation map it is named ‘Claghan’ (Gaelic ‘Clochán’ meaning a small beehive-shaped stone house), but by the Down Survey of 1655 it was merged into Mullaghduff townland where the combined townland was called ‘Mullaghduffe alias Cloghane alias Cornerin’. By 1687 Corranierna again existed as a separate townland.
