Much of this information is being carried in folk memory and is at risk because of the diminishing population of farmers and rural dwellers, changing ownership patterns along with developments such as motorways, field amalgamations and modern farming practices.
The project is guided by an elected Steering Group along with a network of local volunteers and continues to gather field names for Meath townlands not already surveyed. They welcome contact from people who would like to help with this work.
The project launched a book titled 'The Field Names of County Meath' in June 2013 and has also been working on making all the field names and associated information available through online mapping. The interactive mapping was launched on their website in June 2014 and is being constantly improved upon.
