Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. Knocknahunshin (from Irish Cnoc na h-uinnseann, meaning "the hill of the ash trees"), is a townland in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. It is in the civil parish of Boho, in between the townlands of Glenkeel and Reyfad.[1] Within this area are the sub-townlands of Arduagh, Carricknamulloge (from Irish: Carraig na Mullóige[2]), Carricknine, Horse Rock, Legloughra, Owneyglas, Silkins and Sterrickinard.[1]
This area is mentioned as far back as 1672 as "K:nahinshina" in the Barony of Magheraboy.[3] Later on, in 1834, it was referred to by its Irish name of Cnoc na h-Uinnsean meaning "ridge of the ash trees".[3]
