Field Names Project Launch Night

Field Names Project Launch Night

Kiltullagh Killimordaly Heritage Society invites you to the launch of our Field Names Project on Wednesday, 18 February at 7.30pm in Kiltullagh Community Hub.

The names of the fields around Kiltullagh Killimordaly are an important part of our shared local heritage. They connect us to the landscape around us and carry the stories, language, and memories of the people who lived here before us.

Unfortunately, many of these field names are now at risk of being lost as land changes ownership and as older generations pass on. In many cases, they survive only through oral tradition and are known by just a few people.

This project will take a community‑led approach to collecting, recording, and preserving the traditional field names and local features of Kiltullagh Killimordaly. By drawing on local knowledge, oral traditions, and archival material, we aim to create a lasting digital and printed resource that future generations can enjoy and learn from.

Light refreshments will be provided on the night, and maps of local townlands and record sheets will be available for anyone who would like to share names, stories, and contribute whatever knowledge they can.
