Arderry (from Irish Ard Doire meaning 'The high Oakwood') is a townland in the civil parish of Templeport, County Cavan, Ireland. It lies in the Roman Catholic parish of Corlough and barony of Tullyhaw.

Geography

Arderry is bounded on the north by Moneynure townland, on the west by Derryconnessy and Muineal townlands, on the south by Teeboy townland and on the east by Tirnawannagh townland. Its chief geographical features are Bunerky Lough (Irish = Loch Bun Adhairc = The Lake of the Butt of the Horn),^[1]^[2] small streams, dug wells and spring wells.

Arderry is traversed by minor roads and rural lanes.

The townland covers 209 statute acres.^[3]

History

In medieval times the McGovern barony of Tullyhaw was divided into economic taxation areas called ballibetoes, from the Irish Baile Biataigh (Anglicized as 'Ballybetagh'), meaning 'A Provisioner's Town or Settlement'. The original purpose was to enable the farmer, who controlled the baile, to provide hospitality for those who needed it, such as poor people and travellers. The ballybetagh was further divided into townlands farmed by individual families who paid a tribute or tax to the head of the ballybetagh, who in turn paid a similar tribute to the clan chief. The steward of the ballybetagh would have been the secular equivalent of the erenagh in charge of church lands. There were seven ballibetoes in the parish of Templeport. Arderry was located in the ballybetagh of Ballymackgonghan (Irish = Baile Mac Eochagain, meaning 'McEoghan's Town').

The 1614 Ulster Plantation grants list the townland as Tardirry.

The 1652 Commonwealth Survey lists the name as Ardirry.

In the Plantation of Ulster by grant dated 24 February 1614, King James VI and I granted, inter alia, one pole of Tardirry to Phelim McHugh O'Reyly, Bryan McHugh O'Reyly and Cahir McHugh O'Reyly, the sons of Hugh Reyly, late of Ballaghaneo, County Cavan.^[4] Ballaghaneo is now the townland of Ballaghanea in Lurgan Parish, County Cavan, on the shores of Lough Ramor, so the O'Reillys were removed a long way from their home by the Plantation. Hugh Reyly was the great-grandnephew of the chief of the O'Reilly clan, Eoghan na Fésóige mac Seoain, who ruled from 1418–1449. The O’Reilly lands in Arderry were confiscated in the Cromwellian Act for the Settlement of Ireland 1652 and were distributed as follows-

The 1652 Commonwealth Survey lists the proprietor as Captain Payne and the tenant as Cormuck McBrian.

In the Hearth Money Rolls compiled on 29 September 1663,^[5] there were four people listed as paying the tax- Hugh Mageaghan of Arderry, Hugh McDermond of the same, Donell McConnell of the same and Tirlagh McBrien of the same.

The 1790 list of Cavan Carvaghs spells it as Arderry.^[10]

It was made of wood with dimensions of 54 ft x 22 ft x 8.5 ft. Local tradition states that Father John Ward, the parish priest of Templeport from 1758–1795, rode his horse from Bawnboy to Arderry Church to celebrate Mass each Sunday and had breakfast with the local teacher John O'Hara whose school was also held at the church and who also held a Sunday School there.
