    I think it's Béal Átha (mouth of the ford) rather than Baile Na (town of the), so Mouth of the Ford of Crowds.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    I'll bow to your greater knowledge on the subject:-) In my native place the Fairgreen which was still used up to the late '50's was also the place of public execution. It was contiguous to both the courts and the prison which probably helped!
  • Niall McAuley said:
    I see 3 churches, the town hall and a school which are in the NIAH - but all are older than 1865, no help on dates.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Streetview
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Aha, I think this is at the early end of the date range. We should see the gable of this building, the former Sisters of Mercy convent, behind the left end of the town hall, and we don't, we see a different building. The NIAH dates it to roughly 1860, but gives a wide range, meaning they aren't very sure.
