Place & story
Schools for boys and girls
Samuel Lewis’s 1837 account of Ballyrashane parish places its male and female parochial schools at Lisnarick. He records that the rector supported them, while also contributing annually to a school at Ballyrack. The entry documents Lisnarick’s role in the parish’s educational provision; it does not give the schools’ founding dates or identify surviving buildings. [2]
