The railway, now disused, was also a later addition. It cut the townland in half with the bog to the south and the better land to the north.
There were two lakes in the townland which have since disappeared when the Lough Gara drainage was improved in the 1950s. Loughanboy was about 15 acres while Loughaunbeg was about an acre. The area close to the lakes was called Ballinahaun or "Baile an Loughaun" which still persists today.
Every holding in the Townland is listed by number. If you click on a holding, a new page will be displayed giving the Griffith entries and detailing the changes in ownership for that parcel of land over the following hundred years. As you move across the map, the names of the principal occupiers are displayed.
If a house was on the land in 1901, the entries from the Census of that year are also given.
Furthermore, if a family tree has been compiled for the family in residence at the date of the census, a link is made available.
