The Grange district in which the "Glen" is situated, has an interesting history. In ancient times the lands belonged to the Cistercian Abbey of boyle, and although other religious houses had similar places in the County, the term, Grange, appears to have been applied exclusively to the possessions of boyle Abbey. The district now comprises of four townlands, Grange East, Grange West, Grange North, Primrose Grange.
