The Clump, Donard

Does anyone know to where specifically this placename refers?  My great great grandfather reputedly married a lady from here.  All thoughts welcome.

I wonder if it may have been the name of a farm rather than being a place name, and therefore may not be marked on any maps? :-\

Thanks Ruskie, it may well be, or indeed a local name for a place based on its physical attributes
