Typing in a single word (or words) into the search box and clicking 'search' will return every mention of each word throughout the text of the site.

You can also search the site for a phrase by typing in, for instance, "Knockmahon Lodge" and clicking 'search'. Upper quotes must be typed around the search phrase. Very long search phrases will generally return no results. Limit your phrase searches to 2 or 3 words if possible.

The basic search facility searches the text of the site only. It does not search the article or page titles on the site. If you want to search these use the advanced search. The results will be displayed in groups of 10. The results will display the article title, page title, category title, the name of the author, the publication date of the article and will quote the context of the word in the page.

The basic search facility is not case sensitive i.e. it disregards capital letters.
