Dear Ray, loved your video today but was wondering if you could help me with something-my family, the Reillys may have owned the Shanganagh Dairy on Quinn' road and I think my great uncle may have first opened the Quinn's road chalets. Do you know anything about this? I'm trying to do some amateur geneology myself on this farm and dairy.
Hey man nice video! but I think you have a few details about what you call Shankill Castle beside the mill lane a bit off, its actually called the shanganagh castle (original one, other one i assume is named after this much later) and the castle was built in 1408 by Thomas lawless, I grew up here and my dad grew up here too in the private house beside the ruin, you can see it in my vids on here flying my drone beside it in some clips.
Shanganagh actually runs from the Shanganagh river through Rathsallagh, the Cliffs, Corbawn, Quinns Road (Shanganagh Grove, St. Anne's Park etc) through to Shanganagh Park and cemetery... Shankill was to the west of the Dublin Road. Shanganagh was to the east.
What a wonderful video and chronicle of local history. Thanks very much Ray.
Very good ray very interesting
