The Griffith's Valuation of the townland of Toorbeg, parish of Clogheen, barony of Iffa and Offa, County Tipperary, Ireland:
The Griffith's Valuation is a list of persons who rented land and property in Ireland in the 1850s; it defined the size and value of property for the purpose of assessing a fair tax on Irish citizens. It lists both occupiers and the lessors they rented from, and includes a description of the property, the area in acres, roods, and perches (forty perches to the rood, four roods to the acre), and the net annual value of the land and buildings. The value is given in pounds and shillings, and there are twenty shillings to the pound. I have omitted most of the numerical details except for gross acreage in the interest of getting this information on the website. The letters under "Description" stand for house, land, office, garden, and small garden.
