Description Catherine Thompson was leasing a property valued at £5 from the Earl of Kenmare’s estate at the time of Griffith’s valuation. Bary states that this family may have been agents for Lord Kenmare and that local tradition suggests Mr. Thompson was killed by being gored by his bull. The property was occupied until the late twentieth century and farm buildings are still extant at the site.
