O'Flannagan obtained the land,

Uachtar-tire,534 a land of brown berries,
A land of most lasting fruitful soil
Under a clothing of variegated green
.


Note 534:

Uachtar-tire, now the barony of Upperthird, in the north-west of the county of Waterford. The O'Flanagans of this race were dispossessed shortly after the English Invasion by the Anglo-Norman family of Poer, now Power, who still possess a large portion of this territory.
