- The local estate was Powerscourt and the landlord was Patrick Wingfield.Patrick Wingfield evicted the Nolans and Doyle's who were living in Luggelaw. The Nolans are now living in Stoneypass
and the Doyles in Glenmacanass.Many other families were evicted at that time, some of them settled on the hill side in Glencree and other built rough homesteads on the commons and grazed a little stock. Many of the evicted were employed as herds of sheep and cattle.
