- The townland in which I live is Munroe-Red Bog, in the Parish of Carrigaline - Rock of the Lyons-, and the barony of Kerricurrihy - descendants of Ciar or Circ.
The townland is divided into two large farms, on which are six residences, including labourers' cottages, about twenty two people reside in the townland.
It is quite good land with the exception of four acres of bog and a quarter of an acre enclosing a sandpit. The crops produced are oats, wheat, beet, potatoes, mangolds, turnips and hay.
