Who owns it
The registered owner is on the Land Registry folio. Search the map on landdirect.ie at 53.51093, -6.40778 and buy a copy of the folio: €5 online, and it names the owner and any charge on the land. Most land in Ireland is registered; older unregistered titles are in the Registry of Deeds.
