CAHIRCIVEEN, or CAHIRSIVEEN, a post-town in the parish of Cahir, barony of Iveragh, co. Kerry, Munster. It stands on the south-east side of the embouchure of the Fartin or Cahir river, 2 miles east-north-east of Valentía, 24 south-west of Milltown, and 182} south-west of Dublin. It is altogether modern, and owes its origin and progress te the opening of the country by roads, and the encouraging of the fisheries by the construction of harbours. Between the formation of the new line of road, along the vale of Glenbeigh, and the year 1833, there were built in the town saltworks, corn-stores, a good inn, a bridewell, a Roman Catholic chapel, and 76 slated dwelling-houses. The bridewell is small, yet contains the legal accommodation. A pier-quay faced at each side, and extending 181 feet from the root, was constructed by the Fishery Board at the cost, to the public funds, of £369 4s. 7d. ; and it is useful, not only in encouraging fishermen, but in facilitating the export of agricultural produce. About 400 persons in the town and its vicinity derive partial employment from the fisheries, yet seem to pay preferable attention to their other employment of small farmers. A Poor-law union, which takes name from Cahirciveen, ranks as the 120th ; and was declared on Sept. 19, 1840. It lies all in co. Kerry, and comprehends a territory of 146,296 acres, which contained, in 1831, a pop. of 26,785. Its electoral divisions, with their respective pop., in 1831, are Cahir, 5,653; Valentía, 2,614; Killemanagh, 2,548 ; Prior, 3,176 ; Killyman, 3,215; Drummed, 4,600; Glenbeigh, 2,449; Killorglin, 1,284; and Glencar, 1,240. The number of ex-officio and of elected guardians is respectively 6 and 19 ; and of the latter, 3 are returned by Cahir division, and 2 by each of the other divisions. The valuator was appointed on June 22, 1841 ; and the workhouse contains accommodation for 400 paupers. The workhouse was not completed on Feb. 6, 1843 ; and the total expenditure of the union up to that date was £416 7s. 1d. The medical charities are two dispensaries and a fever hospital. One of the dispensaries is at VALENTIA : which see. The other dispensary and also the fever hospital are in Cahirciveen, and serve for a population of respectively 13,104, and 25,144; and, in 1839-40, the former received £134 8s., and expended £135 2s., and the latter had 533 patients, and received £254 4s., and expended £213 19s. 1/2d. The town stands on the estate of Trinity College, Dublin, rented by D. O'Connell, Esq. In its vicinity are various interesting objects noticed in the article CAHIR : which see. Area of the town, 75 acres. Pop., in 1831, 1,192 ; in 1841, 1,492. Houses 215. Families employed chiefly in agriculture, 63 ; in manufactures and trade, 167 ; in other pursuits, 63. Families dependent chiefly on property and professions, 20 ; on the directing of labour, 153 ; on their own manual labour, 101 ; on means not specified, 19.
Move proposal
edit- The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: page moved. No prejudice against subsequent move requests, of course, especially considering User:BrownHairedGirl's comment below. Regards, Arbitrarily0 (talk) 12:38, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
Cahirciveen → Cahersiveen — This is the official spelling (according to Ordnance Survey Ireland and Placenames Database of Ireland) and is also the most popular spelling (as a Google search shows). ~Asarlaí 22:03, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
I have three reasons for requesting this...
- It was moved in May 2006 by User:Physchim62. The reason he/she gave was that "Cahirciveen" was the name used by the Central Statistics Office. However, a search reveals that "Cahersiveen" is also used on their website.
- According to Ordnance Survey maps and the Placenames Database of Ireland, the official name is "Cahersiveen".
- On a Google search:
- "Cahersiveen" yields about 411,000 results
- "Cahirciveen" yields about 120,000 results
- "Cahirsiveen" yields about 105,000 results
- "Caherciveen" yields about 84,800 results
Thoughts? ~Asarlaí 22:03, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
- Support Clearly the common use in English, as well as appearing to be the official name. Skinsmoke (talk) 09:56, 16 July 2010 (UTC)
- Comment - It's been five days and no-one else has pitched-in... should we go ahead with the move? ~Asarlaí 22:19, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
- Comment. I cannot quite replicate the google results above. Using google.ie, I get 97,800 results for Cahirsiveen, and About 118,000 result for Cahirciveen, but 2,010,000 results for Cahersiveen. This seems odd to me: the current usage "Cahirciveen" is what I'm most familiar with, but the google results and the placenames database and the OS map all pointing the other way maybe my subjective feeling is wrong, so I won't oppose a move. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 22:57, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

really?
edit"There are 12 school in total in the area including three other schools on the outskirts of the town."
12 schools in a population of just 1400? is that right? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.22.26.53 (talk) 05:26, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
