  CARROW, CARHOO.—CARROW or CARHOO is a very common Townland name, a " carrow" being formerly a territorial division signifying the quarter of a Townland. Over 700 Townland names bear the prefix CARROW, and there are 16 Townlands so called. CARHOO is the name of 14 Townlands, and is incorporated as a prefix in the designations of about 20 others. These words are from the Irish ceathramhadh, " a quarter of a townland," as Carrowroe, ceathramhadh ruadh, Cfc red quarter." In the Gaelic of Scotland it appears as ceathramh, as in Carminnow, " moorland quarter " (Kircudbrightshire). The Manx form is kerroo, as Kerroo- Glass, " green quarter."
