Store description excerpt
Ireland is divided into over 60,000 townlands — ancient land boundaries that have shaped Irish identity for centuries. Townland Compass tells you which one you're in, right now. LIVE COMPASS See the townland you're standing in and the one you're facing. The compass updates in real time as you move and turn, showing both English and Irish names. EXPLORE THE MAP Browse all of Ireland's townlands, civil parishes, baronies, and counties on an interactive map. Zoom in to discover boundaries at every level of the historic administrative hierarchy. LEARN THE NAMES Every townland includes a glossary breaking down the Irish language origins of its name, linked to the official logainm.ie placenames database. FULL HIERARCHY See how each townland fits into Ireland's traditional administrative structure: Civil Parish → Barony → County → Province. VISIT HISTORY Keep track of townlands you visit, grouped by date. Perfect for walkers logging their routes or anyone exploring their local area. FULLY OFFLINE Everything works without an internet connection. All 60,100 townlands, map tiles, and boundary data are bundled in the app. Ideal for rural areas with no signal. BILINGUAL Switch between English and Irish UI in settings. PRIVACY No accounts. No analytics. No tracking. No data leaves your device. COVERAGE All townlands in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, sourced from Tailte Éireann, OSNI Open Data, and OpenStreetMap. Placename data from logainm.ie.
