From Michael Ansell – 4 May 2020

Good afternoon all

A possible non-stony alternative cold be G. cliathach (I wish we know how Cleagh was pronounced). If bisyllabic Clè-agh then cliathach could work. Is this field on a slope? Cliathach means the slope or side of a hill.

Kind Regards

Michael

PS this just shows how these field names change, pity an earlier Rachel had not done this 100 years ago!
