    emigrated to America. Some of the townland is very hilly and there is a lot of bog in it. Some of the land is suitable for grazing and some of it is suitable for growing crops. Potatoes grow best in the land and turnips and mangolds. There is one small river in the townland which joins a river which flows into the Feorish. The bed of the river is not very far down from the bank. There are no stories connected with the river. There are no lakes in the townland of Granaghan-Dillon.
