Description Thomas J. Atkinson held this property in fee at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £20. It still held this valuation in 1906. A second property in the townland, valued at almost £8, was occupied by John Atkinson, leasing from William Atkinson. Lewis had also noted it as a seat of the Atkinson family in 1837. Cavangarden is still a working farm where guest accommodation is provided.
