              Part of Personal

              Set of index cards describing some of the natural physical features of the townland of Glinsce [Glinsk]. Various sources are referenced giving insights into the origin of the placename, from Patrick Weston Joyce's 'The Origin and History of Irish Names of Places, Vol 3', which interprets it as the glen of the bramble bushes, to a local man who believes it derrives from 'gleann uisce'. Some notes are also provided on the modern day uses of buildings referenced in the OS maps, for instance the local school, Glinsk House, and Marble Studio. The physical features described are Loch an Roisín, Rusheen Point, Cnoc Glinsce, An Charraig Leith, Caladh Beag, An Caladh Mór, Corrán, a Children's Burial Ground, Loch Bhairtle, Barr an Linnín, Cnoc Bharr an Linnín, Abhainn Bharr an Linnín, Loch Cnocán na gCalapp, Caladh Thiobóid, Loch na Dubhaí (Lough Peastia on the OS maps, from the Irish word for worm, péist), Loichín Bharr an Chriathrach, Barr an Chlaí, Loch an Chaoráin, Céibh an Chaltha Mháire, Loch an Tamhnaigh, Tamhnachaí, Loch na Liathróide, Tulach na mBan, Loch an Mheill Mhóir, Tobar Mhuire, and Cuan na Beirtrí Buí.
