Description
Set of index cards describing some of the local features of the townland of Cleggan [An Cloigeann]. Information from Griffith's Valuation about Frederick Twining of the famous tea family, who was the lessor of the land at the time. A note on the weekly market belonging to the manor of Bonowan. Included are descriptions of Fuaigle Móra, Fó Capall Fheilípe, Poll an Ghunna Mhóir, the Port Cove (sometimes known simply as Port), Fó na Sleanntrachaí, Cora Gharbh, Lough Natawny (located between Cleggan and Ballynew), Bun an tSrutháin, Fó na mBó, Fó Bheithe, Binn Bhuí, Fuaigh na gCailleach, Cleggan Tower, Lough Knockaunbaun, a Court Tomb, Tobar na Seacht nIníon, Fó Dhearg, Cleggan Bay, and Cleggan Point Light. Several local sources are credited with providing information, namely Joe O'Toole of Moyard, Mr. Heaslipp of Bundouglas, an elderly lady at Heanue's, and Mike Gibbons. Also included is a letter from Martin Hilliard received by Tim Robinson, and dated 29 October 1992. In the letter, Hilliard submits a possible correction on two points regarding Cleggan, namely the origin of the cottages beside Cleggan Strand, and a translation of Sheeauns/Na Siáin.
