Place & story
Reading the house records separately
The University of Galway’s Landed Estates survey places Lisheen House in Aglishcloghane parish. It reports that the 1840 Ordnance Survey Name Books named John Crawford as holder, while an addendum under Uskane described Lisheen as the residence of Geo. Fosbery, Jnr. These entries should not be treated as proof that one man occupied the house throughout. At Griffith’s Valuation, George Fosberry held it in fee, with a valuation of almost £8. The survey records a house still standing at the site. [2]
