Barony of Galmoy map

Code for the overpass turbo queries:

To look for a barony, just use the Wizard and type

boundary=barony AND name=Galmoy in Ireland

(replace “Galmoy” with the barony you are looking for)

To look for the townlands within that barony, copy and paste the following into overpass turbo:

/*
Looking for townlands in the barony of Galmoy
*/
[out:json][timeout:25];
// fetch area “Galmoy” to search in
{{geocodeArea:Ireland}}->.searchArea;
// gather results
(
// query part for: “admin_level=10”
area["name"="Galmoy"]["boundary"="barony"];
rel(area)["admin_level"="10"];
);
// print results
out body;
>;
out skel qt;

(Again, replace “Galmoy” with the name of your barony.)

To look for graveyards and cemeteries in that barony:

[out:json][timeout:25];
// fetch area “Galmoy” to search in
{{geocodeArea:Ireland}}->.searchArea;
// gather results
(
// query part for graveyards and cemeteries in the barony of Galmoy
area["name"="Galmoy"]["boundary"="barony"];
way(area)["amenity"="grave_yard"];
way(area)["landuse"="cemetery"];
);
// print results
out body;
>;
out skel qt;

(Same as before. You can also look for churches or castles or ringforts, but those queries are more complex.)
