## Geography

Corranearty is bounded on the north by [Cloghoge](/source/Cloghoge) townland, on the west by [Alteen](/source/Alteen) and [Monydoo (or Tonycrom)](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Monydoo_(or_Tonycrom)&action=edit&redlink=1) townland and on the east by [Hawkswood](/source/Hawkswood) townland. Its chief geographical features are mountain streams, a pond, a forestry plantation and dug wells. Corranearty is traversed by minor public roads and rural lanes. The townland covers 90 statute acres.[2]

## History

In medieval times Corranearty was owned by the McGovern Clan and formed part of a ballybetagh spelled (variously) Aghycloony, Aghcloone, Nacloone, Naclone and Noclone (Irish derived place name *Áth Chluain*, meaning the ‘Ford of the Meadow’). The 1609 Baronial Map depicts the ballybetagh as *Naclone*.[3]

In the [Plantation of Ulster](/source/Plantation_of_Ulster) by grant dated 26 June 1615, King [James VI and I](/source/James_VI_and_I) granted, inter alia, *The precinct or parcel of Nacloone otherwise Aghcloone to Sir George Graeme and Sir Richard Graeme to form part of the Manor of Greame*.[4] The Grahams took part in the [Irish Rebellion of 1641](/source/Irish_Rebellion_of_1641) and after the war their lands were confiscated under the [Act for the Settlement of Ireland 1652](/source/Act_for_the_Settlement_of_Ireland_1652).

The 1821 Census of Ireland spells the name as *Correnarty and Cornarty* and states- *contains 33 acres of pasture & 4 acres of bog*.[5]

The 1825 Tithe Applotment Books spell the name as *Clonartys*.[6]

The Corranearty (spelled Corancarty) Valuation Office Field books are available for August 1838.[7]

[Griffith's Valuation](/source/Griffith's_Valuation) lists nine landholders in the townland.[8]

The landlord of Corranearty in the 19th century was Robert Burrowes.
