In this td. is situated the village of Ballinamuck, the scene of bloody engagement between the King's forces and the rebels in September 1798. It is at present a poor village, containing a Roman Catholic Chapel., a smithy, 3 public houses, a good freestone flag quarry, a new police barracks (flanked by two towers), a pound and a school. A fair is held here. This td. is about two-thirds arable; the remainder is bog. There is a number of houses in it, and the road from Drumlish to Granard passes through it.
