Cornacleigh ({{Irish derived place name|Corr na Cloiche|The Hill of the Stone}}) is a townland in the civil parish of Templeport, and barony of Tullyhaw, County Cavan, Ireland. The local pronunciation is Curnacloyche.

Geography

Cornacleigh is bounded on the north by Corlough townland, on the west by Leitra, Corlough townland, on the south by Cartronnagilta and Cronery townlands and on the east by Corratillan and Knockmore, County Cavan townlands. Its chief geographical features are the River Blackwater, County Cavan, a stream, forestry plantations and spring wells. Cornacleigh is traversed by minor public roads and rural lanes. The townland covers 108 statute acres.[2]

History

In earlier times the townland was probably uninhabited as it consists mainly of bog and poor clay soils. It was not seized by the English during the Plantation of Ulster in 1610 or in the Cromwellian Settlement of the 1660s so some dispossessed Irish families moved there and began to clear and farm the land.

A lease dated 17 September 1816 John Enery of Bawnboy includes Carnacliff otherwise Carnacligh.[1]

The landlord of Cornacleigh in the mid-19th century was John Finlay.

Records of inhabitation include:

  • The Tithe Applotment Books for 1826 list nine tithepayers in the townland.[2]
  • In 1841 the population of the townland was 60, being 29 males and 31 females. There were nine houses in the townland, all of which were inhabited.[3]
  • In 1851 the population of the townland was 47, being 22 males and 25 females, the reduction being due to the Great Famine (Ireland). There were seven houses in the townland, all inhabited.[4]

  • In 1861 the population of the townland was 37, being 20 males and 17 females. There were five houses in the townland, of which two were uninhabited.[6]
