According to my Department’s records the right of turbary over Plot 104 in the townland of Cloonkeelaun, County Sligo was allotted to the named person by Purchase Agreement dated 25 March 1929 and vested in him on 9 September 1938. The turbary right was registered as appurtenant to Folio SL12378 and in 2001 was also registered as appurtenant to Folio SL16764F. If the individual named wishes to harvest turf from the plot he should take the matter up with the registered owners of the folios concerned.
