- The townland I live in is Burreen in the Parish of Lurgan and in the Barony of Castleraghen. There are ten families in the townland and about sixty people. All the houses are thatched. There are three people over seventy in it. Miss Cullen, Burreen, Virginia can talk Irish. Houses were more numerous in this townland long ago.One part of the townland is called Burreencaragh because it is very stony. The other part is called Burreenrea because it is red from the sun. It is always shining on it. There is a river flowing through the townland called the Burreen River. Lough Ramor Lake is bordering the edge of the townland.
