Over 4,500 links added to Townland pages on website

Post by Clare Admin » Fri Feb 18, 2011 1:37 pm

4,719 links have been added to the townlands pages on the library website, providing links to the derivation, meaning and Irish translation of each townland from the Placenames Database of Ireland, and a link to a list of occupants, map and original page of Griffith's Valuation for each townland from Ask About Ireland. Clare County Library is grateful to Rainer Kosbi and the staffs of The Placenames Branch of the Department of Community, Equality and Gaeltacht Affairs and the Ask About Ireland website for their assistance with this project.

To access the Townland pages, click on the 'Places and Placenames' link on the library website main page, and then select the 'Townlands' link.
