Description | Lewis records G. Ryan as resident at Derryleagh Castle in 1837. In 1840 and at the time of Griffith's Valuation Henry Hawkshaw held a house valued at £12+ from Lady Waller at Derryleigh. A building is still located at this site. The Ordnance Survey Name Books record the existence of an old castle in this townland which had been "razed to the ground by Mr. Hawkshaw" some time previously. |
