    Hi I lived in Gleann as a child for a while in the 70’s. My stepfathers surname was Leydon. He would have been around 9/10 at the time this video I think. I remember the cottage being near the school. His eldest sister was called Mary she married & moved into the town. I stayed with her,fond memories.
