What is recorded here

Situated on flat pasture in undulating countryside. In the Civil Survey (1654-6) Toomevara is described as 'the sd manor of Tome ye priviledge of a Court Leete & a Court Barron, a Fayre twice a yeare, & a markett every Tuesday' (Simington 1934, vol. 2, 213). No earthworks visible at ground level in or around the modern village. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 September 2008
