That is the walled or fortified town, so called from an intrenchment,
for voza properly signifies a trench or place cast up. This trench was
measured for me by Mr. Joseph Webber, steward to Miss Mary Williams of
Trehane, the proprietor; and it proved to be two hundred and ten paces
in circumference.
[Car or Cair is a fort, and voza and voran are the plural of voz or
vore, a ditch (see Pryce’s Vocabulary). Corvoza would therefore be the
entrenched fort. ED.]
