The Survey was basically concerned with lands which were confiscated after the Cromwellian victory. It is a mapped record of land ownership and selected items of settlement and topography. The divisions used were barony, parish and townland. Land already in Protestant hands, although mentioned, is not surveyed. The Survey for Kerry, Waterford, Wexford and Kilkenny is available on microfilm in the Local Studies Department.
