Barnavihall House, Barnavihall, Co. Galway

In County Galway, a house called Barnavihall carries a name that is itself a small puzzle, the kind of place-name that suggests a long local history without immediately giving it up.

The name likely derives from Irish, as so many Connacht townland names do, layered over a landscape that was being farmed and settled long before any formal residence was built there.
