The name derives from the Irish: altan ach (Abounding in cliffs or glens). The population of the townland declined during the 19th century: The townland contains one Scheduled Historic Monument: a burial mound (grid ref: H6266 6936), which contained pits and urn burials with cremated bone. Three cordoned urns were found with a calibrated date range of 1890-1450 BC.
