- Dromanarigle - the back or ridge of the arigle or eargail a small oratory of olden days. The meaning of Dromanarigle must be the back of the eargail, for there is no ridge. The location of the eargail is not known but at least two places in this district are known as Dubh-eargail (Dubh-eargail) one near Lismine Newmarket, and another near Millstreet (Caslán Dúbh-Eargail) an O'Keiffe Castle.
At present there are 8 (eight) homesteads in the townland six thatched and two slated. The population is 30. Men 12 and 18 women.
