hill of the plain?
Is trua gan aon fhianaise tagtha anuas chugainn atá níos sine ná 1655. Cé go bhfuil cuma thrédhearcach ar an logainm as a bhfuil againn d’fhoirmeacha béarlaithe, níl sa bhaile fearainn seo ach talamh leibhéalta. Ní léir suíomh don logainm stairiúil 1679 ‘ó Chnoc Meadha a Laoighis’ atá luaite i measc ainmneacha sí-chnoc in Tóruigheacht Gruaidhe Griansholus (TCD LS 1399) (féach FSÁG s.n. Cnoc Meadha (2)).
