The number of occupied dwellings is 20 (including Burnthouse) and for census purposes it is incorporated within the 'census town' of Rosscahill, Wormhole with a total population of 295 in 2011.[1] Historical recordIn the Royal Commission on Congestion in Ireland (1908),[2] the townland is mentioned as part of a submission proposing the construction of a bridge across the Corrib, to replace the existing ferry service.[3] Such a proposal had first been mooted by Archbishop John MacHale of Tuam, during a visit of 1868.[4] and raised subsequently in 1897 as a suggestion for relief work for farmers suffering from a failure of the potato crop.[4] References1. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.galway.ie/en/media/Census%202011%20-%20Population%20Results.pdf|title=Census 2011 Population Results County Galway|last=|first=|date=|website=|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=}} {{Galway-geo-stub}}2. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.dippam.ac.uk/ied/records/44480|title=Documenting Ireland: Parliament, People and Migration|website=www.dippam.ac.uk|access-date=2017-03-09}} 3. ^{{Cite news|url=http://www.oughterardheritage.org/content/topics/royal-commission-on-congestion-in-ireland-1908|title=Royal Commission on Congestion in Ireland 1908|work=Oughterard Heritage|access-date=2017-03-09|language=en}} 4. ^1 {{Cite news|url=http://www.oughterardheritage.org/content/place/the_knock_ferry_bridge_knock_north_much_talked_about_never_built|title=The Knock Ferry Bridge - Knock, North - Much Talked About - Never Built|work=Oughterard Heritage|access-date=2017-03-09|language=en}} 1 : Townlands of County Galway |
