    53 Castle of Inchbeg in 1580 belonged to Conor Mc Clancy
    53 Lord Clare's "big house"was on the top of Ballymacooda hill at the back of where Jack Meany's cottage is now.
    Jack Meany's door is found open every night ,but, is closed again .
    in the morning .
    The cottage is said to be haunted .An old man from Kilmaley told me that people went to cut a tree here at the dead of night and were frightened. They saw a man standing at the tree, and he never moved .
    {See legend about Lord Clare's morey coachman.and dog}
    53 Ther is a Cill in Michael King's place in Liosmulbréda .There is a brush growing there,and local tradition has it that a man was buried here in bad times,with only a wisp of hay to cover him,and that the bush grew over his grave.
