It's a long (north to south) and narrow townland, about 2 miles from the top out at Marks Point in "greater" Mulroy Bay down to Lough Boughan/Baughan, and averagely a third of a mile or so wide (east to west). The main Carrickart to Millford road (R 245) cuts right across the middle of the townland. Adjacent townlands are Devlinmore to the east, Carrick to the west and Tullagh to the south. There are about 40 buildings currently in the townland and probably more than double that in the adjacent townlands........so there's a chance of other Bradley families still living in that area.

Hi, Pete Schermerhorn of Massachusetts! Can your all-seeing-eye see Court, near Milford? Is there a Milford and a Millford?
