Unreferenced stub on a thoroughly non-notable townland (small local area, usually only a few hundred acres) in County Sligo Ireland, about which there is little to say other that it exists and has a few posh houses. Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 19:53, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete - Thoroughly non notable place. Mind you stumbling on rocky shores, sounds quite painful. Snappy (talk) 21:30, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep It's an official geographic division, which is generally considered notable. It is used as a geographic location and point of reference in some book sources, and the usual policy of keeping established geographic locations should apply here as well.

 * It's a townland. Much as I like the townland system and hate postcodes, here are more 60,000 townlands in Ireland, and there is next to noting to say about plenty of them. A list of townlands in the Eniscrone area might be of some use, but this is just a factoid which belongs in a list, not in a standalone article. --02:18, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

 * If there isn't much verifiable information about the place, it could be redirected to Enniscrone or Kilglass. snigbrook (talk) 23:17, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Keep: I am not familiar with the townland system in Ireland, but the fact that there are 60,000 of them in Ireland doesn't tell me much. (How many CDPs are there in the United States?  Every one seems to have an article).  TheCatalyst31 makes good points.  While article needs some cleanup, how would deletion of this article improve wikipedia?--Milowent (talk) 11:31, 20 March 2010 (UTC)
