What is recorded here

A land grant to Oliver Fitzgerald in 1620 included the 'town of Moylackan, containing a water-mill ' (Cal. pat. rolls Ire., Jas I, 487). An early 17th-century map of Rathcline barony (BL, Cotton MS Augustus I.i.48) indicates that the N part of the present townland of Derrydarragh was known as Moylackan. The precise location of the mill has not been identified; the mill shown on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map may have been built on or close to it.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
