Description |
Irishtown is named on the first edition OS map and the 25 inch map. In the late 1770s it was the home of Johnston. The Banon/Bannons lived here in the 19th century. Lewis records J Banon as resident in 1837 and Christopher J Bannon was the occupant at the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1854). He held the house valued at £15 from William H Magan. The Banons were still living at Irishtown at the time of the 1901 and 1911 censuses. The house was demolished in the 1960s but outbuildings remain. |
