- Corrycholman is the name of my townland. There are six families living in it. There are twenty people in in the townland. Two of the houses are slated, and the rest are thatched.
There were a great many other houses in the district long ago - John Campbell's, Master Clarke's, William Winnen's, Anne Glancy's and Patrick Myles.
