KILLOWEN - Lewis’ Topographical Dictionary 1837 - KILLOWEN, or KILLOWNEY, a parish, in the barony of KINNALMEAKY, county of CORK, and province of MUNSTER, 4 miles (W) from Bandon, on the road from that place to Dunmanway; containing 432 inhabitants. It comprises 1260 statute acres, as applot ted under the tithe act; the land is generally good, but the old system of agriculture is pursued, and the heavy wooden plough is still in use. Mamore is the residence of S. B. Beamish, Esq. The living is a rectory, in the diocese of Cork, and in the patronage of Lord Kinsale: the tithes amount to £140. 12. 9. Divine service is performed in a house licensed by the bishop. In the R. C. divisions it forms part of the union or district of Templemartin. Here is a Sunday school, supported by the rector. A large mass of white quartz is called by the peasantry the “holy stone,” around which, according to tradition, the priest for merly assembled the parishioners for public worship.

About two-thirds of it are under cultivation; the land, though mostly light, is good, but very badly tilled, agriculture not being systematically followed, except by a few gentlemen. An extensive and valuable bog at Maulnadrought, the property of Sir Augustus Warren, Bart., supplies this part of the coun try with fuel. Here are extensive flour-mills, the property of A. B. Bernard, Esq., employing 20 persons, and grinding, with those of Morah Bridge, 12,000 barrels of wheat annually. Nucestown, which was sacked and destroyed in the war of 1641, has ever since remained a poor, neglected, and ruinous place; it is a constabulary police station, and has fairs on Jan. 8th, Whit-Tuesday, Oct. 15th, and Dec. 14th, for cattle, pigs, pedlery, and farming implements. The river Bandon bounds the parish on the south; and the formation of a canal from Collier’s quay, about four miles below Bandon, to Dunmanway, a line of about 18 miles, passing through this parish, has been contemplated; but the design appears to be for the present suspended. The principal seats are the glebe-house, the residence of the Rev. R. K. St. Lawrence; Farnalough, of H. Herrick, Esq.; and Killyneas Cottage, of the Rev. J. Murphy. The living is a rectory and vicarage, in the dio cese of Cork, and in the patronage of the Bishop: the tithes amount to £85 1. The glebe-house is a handsome and commodious residence, built by aid of a gift of £100, and a loan of £850, in 1810, from the late Board of First Fruits; it is situated in a beautifully picturesque part of the vale of Bandon, and is designed and embellished with much taste: the glebe comprises 37 acres. The church, situated at Farren-Thomas, is a large neat edifice, in the early English style of architec ture, with a square tower; it crowns the summit of the lofty ridge which rises from the north side of the river Bandon, and is nearly in the centre of the parish; it was erected by aid of a loan of £550 from the same Board, in 1810. In the R. C. divisions the parish is the head of a union or district, comprising also the parish of Kinneigh, and containing two chapels; that of Murragh, situated at Nucestown, is a spacious edifice. About 20 children are educated in the parochial school, which has an acre of ground rent-free: there are four private schools, in which are about 130 children, and a Sunday school under the rector. Robert Lisson, Esq., by will, gave £5 per annum to poor Protestant parishioners, which was to be paid out of his estate of Roughgrove, in the parish of Kilbrogan, and distributed annually by the incumbent. In the churchyard is a large sepulchral tumulus, of unknown origin. The former church stood close to the edge of the river; the waters, in consequence, gradually undermined the bank, and destroyed the building, though it had not been many years erected; the present church, built on a different site, forms a conspicuous object for many miles round.

It comprises 7423 statute acres, of which about 330 are common; about one-tenth is pasture, one-twentieth bog (affording a good supply of uisel), and the remainder under tillage being generally poor and stony ground. At Lisnegat is a large power-loom factory for spinning cotton, employing about 100 persons. At Mosstown, there was formerly a distillery and it was subsequently a brewery, but it has long been discontinued. Fairs are held at Mossgrove on March 17th, Corpus-Christi day, Sept. 2nd, and Dec. 8th, chiefly for cattle. The gentlemen’s seats are Mount Pleasant, the residence of H. Baldwin, Esq., a handsome mansion on a commanding eminence in a highly improved demesne; Gurrane, a newly erected and handsome house, near the old family mansion, the residence of J. Splaine, Esq.; Moss- grove, of S. Baldwin, Esq.; Scartnamuck, of B. Popham, Esq.; Old Park, of H. Giliman, Esq.; and the glebe-house, of the Rev. F C. Sullivan. The living is a rectory and perpetual cure, in the diocese of Cork; the rectory forming part of the union of Templebready and of the corps of the deanery of St. Finbarr’s, Cork; the perpetual curacy is in the gift of the Dean. The tithes amount to £519, of which £500 is payable to the dean, and £19 to the perpetual curate, who also receives £30 per ann. from Primate Boulter’s augmentation fund. The glebe house was built by aid of a gift of £500, in 1793, from the same Board. In the R. C. divisions the parish is the head of a union or district, comprising the parishes of Templemartin, Killowen, and part of Kilbrogan: the chapel is a small plain edifice. The male and female parochial school, in which are about 30 children, is aided by the dean and local subscriptions, and has a house and an acre of land rent-free from the Duke of Devonshire: there is also a private school, in which are about 40 children, and a Sunday school is superintended by the curate. At Gurrane are the ruins of an old fortified mansion of the Baidwins, who acquired the estate by purchase from the Maskelyne family, in 1612: it appears to have been surrounded by a wall, in the angles of which, and at one end of the house, were round turrets three of which are standing. A subterraneous passage leading from the house to the adjacent bog is still visible, the entrance to which was by an aperture covered by the hearth stone of a room on the ground floor. There are also many Danish raths in the parish, one on the lands of Gurrane, including three acres, and surrounded by three ramparts and a fosse; another at Castle-Lac, where are four upright stones of clay- slate, respectively 12, 9, and 6 feet high; they are supposed to be druidical, or to have been erected to commemorate a victory obtained here by the Danes in 968. On the same ploughland was formerly a castle, now quite demolished.

NEWCESTOWN CHURCH BUILDING FUND 1873
Subscribers from Newcestown and Bandon
(CE 6/12/1873) -NEW CHURCH OF ST. JOHN THE BAPTIST AND PRESBYTERY AT NEWCESTOWN - I have been induced to defer publishing for another week, the Subscribers of the Cork Deanery, in order to show, by the following Lists, that the Roman Catholic inhabitants of my parish have well done their part, and that they consequently deserve foreign aid towards the completion of these works, which entirely surpass their limited resources however generously drawn upon. I do it also becuase I have been surprised at learning that many labour under a grave misapprehension, for it had been objected to me:- FATHER CUMMINS, what are you about - are you going to make the people of Cork, Bandon and every other place build your church, and leave your own parishoners go scot-free - what are you doing at home & c. & c.” - The following lists containing the names of the 81 Roman Catholic occupiers or holders of land or tenements rated according to Griffith’s Valuation, and of 127 others comprising mechanics, dairymen, labourers & c - all in the parish of Murragh proper and Killowen, will answer for my people and self. To these Subscriptions must be added the sum of about £125 from eight townlands of Kinneigh, for some years back annexed to Murragh, in part compensation for the burden of a Curate. Of this latter sum £30 have already been paid in by Mr. John Holland, Belrose, being four times the amount for which he was assessed, and £3 by Mrs. Bart. Hurley, as a special thank-offering for the adornment of the Sacristry. To account for the smallness of the contribution from this section, it is so due to the inhabitants to state that they have been called upon to pay only that sum, because for the most part they frequent the Castletown chapel, in the parish of Enniskeane, and also, for a stronger reason, in consideration of the great sacrifice they made, in conjunction with the other remnant of Kenneigh, in having, almost unaided, erected that fine chapel not many years ago. - There is another point, of which the public amy be unaware, which must also strengthen and commend this appeal - it is that I have not, at free command for the work heading this notice, the undivded support of my entire parish, there being in fact another important work on hands, the improvement of the chapel of Farnivane, in the small parish of Templemartin, containing 960 Roman Catholic inhabitants, which will entail an expenditure of £500. This chapel, originally built by the people of that parish, is now with a like characteristic zeal speaking volumes for their devotion, being completed by them by a ...tax, not helped by any subsidary aid. Were it not for that heavy drain on native resources, my position would now be a mcu more pleasant and a comparatively easy one, as, with such a large sum at command, I could nearly pay for the materials of the roof of the new church for which I must now, however, be indebted to the obligingness of Messers. James O Connor and Sons. - I think it also due my good people, to observe to the readers of the following lists that, of the large sum of £1,800 subscribed in my parish for the new church, only about £250 remains unpaid. - JEREMIAH CUMMINS, P.P.,Mossgrove, Bandon, Dec. 5, 1873

The following very kind Protestant parishoners and immediate neighbours have helped to fill up this column. In closing this list with their names, I wish to associate them with the good people of Bandon, with which most of them hold friendly intercourse and intimate realtions. I also take this oppurtunity of recording my most grateful thanks to all my Protestant parishoners who have, on many an emergency, given me what I prized beyond money, the valuable assistance of horse labour, which I trust will be as it is an evidence of present, a pledge of future and abiding friendship:-
