Cloghogle Manor comprises townlands mostly in the parish of Leckpatrick but also some in the parish of Donagheady (e.g., Gortileck). The 1756 survey of Cloghogle Manor (by Thomas Draffen) consists of maps and text indicating the amount (acres) of each type of land (i.e., arable, pasture, bog, etc.) within each section, with a commentary by the surveyor about usability/improvability in general. Unfortunately the current leaseholder is often not indicated, but I've listed it if indicated. (It's also possible that some of these tracts have no current leaseholder.) Also indicated are the number(s) of houses, dwellers, cotters, and herds (I assume this is referring to herds of livestock).
