The Down Survey (1655-6) barony map of Crannagh depicts a large house in ‘Failature’ townland and it is also indicated on the parish map of Tullaroan (Hibernia Regnum, courtesy of Trinity College Dublin). The terrier accompanying the parish map describes this townland as ‘unforfeited’, with ‘John Grace protest[ant]’ listed as the proprietor in 1640 (ibid.). The precise location of this house within the SE portion of Foylatalure townland is unknown.
