    I Heard it often said...

    I heard it often said that the Boyse family used their influence when the chapel was being built in Carrig.
    It seems it was hard to get a site for the Chapel but the Boyse family gave the site on condition that it would be built in the shape of a Protestant Church.
    Everyone remarks the square tower on it like the Protestant towers and that is why they say it was built like it is.
    (The Boyse family are landlords of the District - their home being Bannow House, and their demesne being formerly farm lands of Grange.)
