Place & story

Two houses and sixteen residents

The 1901 census recorded sixteen people in Ballyclogh, ten males and six females, occupying two inhabited houses. In 1891 it had eleven residents and one house; the 1881 figures were six people and two houses. A note attached to the 1901 figures attributed the increase to the erection of a house. This is the report’s explanation of the change since the preceding census, rather than evidence of a longer building boom. The table locates Ballyclogh in Mogeely parish, Kinnatalloon barony and Curraglass electoral division. [2]
