Pleased to launch our Townlands of Ireland poster design. With just an eircode, we customise the design to highlight the townland that the eircode sits inside. Since there are over 60,000 townlands on the island of Ireland, that's a whole lot of variations!
Whilst working on another townland project, we came across an interesting pair of townlands. Boleyduff / Buaile Dubh is almost completely surrounded (350°) by Skeavally or Sceach a Bhaile. We're not sure if this has always been the case, of if we're witnessing Skeavally devouring Boleyduff whole?
