Scartaglin Parish

Scartaglin is one of the joint parishes of Castleisland, Cordal and Scartaglin. The ancient name of the parish as given on the Ordinance Survey is Ballincuslane ( Baile an Chaisleáin). There is a ford on the River Flesk where the old road from Scartaglin to Killarney crosses it; and I remember old people calling it " Ath tseana Chaisleáin "; I remember also great quantities of loose stones scattered in the neighbourhood, that were not quarry stones, but seemed to belong to a building. I never saw any trace of a castle, nor ever heard anything of it, except the name of the Ford.
