  1. How the Glen of Aherlow Got its Name

    Share Share Post
    In the Valleys at the foot of the Galtees were settled at a remote period the non-Milesian tribes of the Crottraigh and the Eatharlaigh. From the first-named originated Crotta Cliach, the ancient name of the Galtees, while the Eatharliagh bestowed their tribal appellation on the Glen of Aherlow.
