Thanks, George. So in 1689 it would be likely to have been (rather poor) farming land.

Have you any idea what CR meant by "part of the Swimming Pool" (on the Mooragh)? In 1729 when Thomas Kerruish inherited part of it (according to CR - last message), it was described in his brother William Kerruish's will as "half of his house and Garden situate in Ramsey of five pence rent ..... . [and] the other half of the above house and Garden unto his Brother Thomas.."
