Limerick in 1651 was split into two sections, English town and Irish town, which were separated by the river Abbey.

I think this is ambigious. Does it mean Limerick was split into two in 1651, or that it was still split into two in 1651. --Philip Baird Shearer 22:52, 3 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

I don't think its very ambiguos. As of 1651 Limerick was geographically split in two parts as it had been for a very long time. Many Irish towns including Dublin, Kilkenney, Limerick and probably others have areas known as "Irishtown", where in medieval the Gaelic Irish lived. These were on opposite sides of a river, hence the town was "split in two parts" What's the problem? Jdorney 17:23, 7 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
