    Irish name Átha Donn got from ford in River Nore - could walk across river at Neill's when tide is out.
    "Donn" or "Brúin" from a man of that name who probably lived there,
    Irish name Átha Brúin is more correct than Áth Donn. I have heard, as a man name Brúin lived at the ford.

    There was and still is a Mass path from Lower Brownsford (River) through Castle grounds - style there - then from Leech's through Walsh's Gleanntáns to Tullogher.
