What is recorded here

A house is marked on the Down Survey map (1655-58) in NLI (ms 725, microfilm P 7384, N 6380) of Forth barony at Mullgannon, and the terrier, or commentary, records that Patrick Synnott owned 280 acres there in 1640, although most of it was unprofitable. The terrier also describes the walls of a stone house, but the precise location of this house is not known. See the attached section of the Down Survey (1656-8) barony map (N at right) reproduced courtesy of the National Library of Ireland (Ms 725) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 28 May, 2013

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.
