What is recorded here

Settlement deserted is a settlement deserted (medieval) in Ballykinash, Caherhoereigh, Doughkill, Faddan Beg, County Tipperary, Ireland. The Civil Survey for 1654 to 1656 recorded sixteen cottages dispersed through the manor, which included Ballykynase and Feddan. The Countess of Ormond held the property in 1640. The exact settlement location is not known, though it may have stood at modern Carrig.

The Civil Survey (1654-6) refers to 'The Mannor & Lordshipp of Leakagh, Skehanagh, Loghkeene, Glahaskine, Castletowne, Aghnacaragy, Feddan, Ballykynase, Killine & Croaghane eight plds' and 'Uppon ye sd mannor stands sixteene cottages disperst in sevall corners wthin ye bounds of it' (Simington 1934, vol.1, 325). It was under the proprietorship of the Countess of Ormond in 1640 (ibid.). The settlement may have been at modern day Carrig but there is not firm evidence to back this up so it remains unlocated within several townlands. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 September 2008
