Morrows of Donegal Bradley area

Would anyone know where the area of Bradley/Bradlea is in Donegal as my Gt Grandmother is listed as this address on her marriage to my Gt Grandfather John McGrath in 1874.
A relative from Australia has asked if I know where it is and would anyone have a photo of the area?
I would appreciate any information anyone has.
Regards

What was your grandmother's name, I can't see a McGrath Morrow marriage in 1874, the registration district would narrow things down a lot.

Ah found it as Magrath
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1874/11227/8115770.pdf
so the district is Donegal
https://www.swilson.info/regdistmap.php?gregdistid=58
and the parish is Drumholm
https://registers.nli.ie/parishes/1005
Nothing oblivious

is it not on the list or did the priest have terrible spelling

You didn't say, so I have to find ways to narrow down the area.
Did she have any brothers or sister, trying to find a better version of the name on another record.

Yes, I thought it had to be in the Ballintra area but it’s long gone off any maps that I can share with Annette Morrow!
