ARDSALLIS, a village, in the parish of TOMFINLOUGH,
barony of BUNRATTY, county of CLARE, and
province of MUNSTER, 5½ miles (N.W.) from Six-milebridge,
on the road from Newmarket-on-Fergus to Quin:
the population is returned with the parish. Nearly
adjoining it is a good race-course, which was formerly
much frequented, but the races have been for many
years discontinued. Fairs are held on the 12th of May
and the 12th of August, chiefly for cattle, and were
formerly well attended.
