    It was last seen just off the main Carrigans to St.Johnston road.

    The townland border, and the Gaeltacht, split the village. The Ballybofey side of the village is in Cloghanbeg. The Fintown side, after the junction, is in Brockagh.

    The Post Office is Cloghan PO so I suppose this became the official address.

    The whole village is in the Gaeltacht, the Gaeltacht border is the burn after the new health centre and school. The PO is in Cloghan mor, Brockagh starts where Harkins pub is situated, the bar being in Brockagh and most of the lounge in Cloghan mor:D

    Is that not Cloghanbeg, with Cloghanmore starting (and the Gaeltacht stopping) afer the burn at the health centre?
