The National Monuments Service's description
The Civil Survey (1654-6) refers to 'The Mannor & Lordshipp of Leakagh, Skehanagh, Loghkeene, Glahaskine, Castletowne, Aghnacaragy, Feddan, Ballykynase, Killine & Croaghane eight plds' and 'Uppon ye sd mannor stands sixteene cottages disperst in sevall corners wthin ye bounds of it' (Simington 1934, vol.1, 325). It was under the proprietorship of the Countess of Ormond in 1640 (ibid.). The settlement may have been at modern day Carrig but there is not firm evidence to back this up so it remains unlocated within several townlands.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
