Dave,

Radinstown is not in the townlands database at http://www.seanruad.com/
which makes things tough. There are a few near misses - these two seem
the most likely?

Townland / Acres / County / Barony / Civil Parish / PLU / Province
Rahinstown / 569 / Meath / Lower Moyfenrath / Rathcore / Trim / Leinster
Rodanstown / 214 / Meath / Upper Deece / Rodanstown / Celbridge / Leinster

There are also some 12 different Robinstown listed for Meath & Westmeath.
