              A set of index cards outlining some of the local features of the townland of Gowlaunlee, [Gabhlán na Lí]. Some summary notes from O'Donovan's name books, Griffith's Valuation, and the Placenames Department of the OS. Also included are summary descriptions of Birallate rath, Binn, Mám a Tuirc Móir, Gabhlain Ard, a note on the King Cottages (and Mr. King who was involved in the 1921 Munterowen ambush between the IRA and RIC), a note on Cillín (a children's burial ground), Anacair, Taobh Bán, Mám Ochóige, Mám Tuirc, and a detailed note on Pádraig Ó'Máille's cave (and a detailed sketch). The cave dates back to Spring 1918, and was used as a hideout by IRA leaders in the ensuing years.
