It had a population of 77 people (31 households) in the 2011 Census.[3] (2001 Census: 105 people) HistoryThe first Church of Ireland church was built at Madden in 1709. The glebe-house, which is also in Madden, was erected by the incumbent, the Reverend James Jones, and is "large and handsome". The church is "a very commodious edifice", rebuilt in 1816, by aid of a loan of £1000 from the late Board of First Fruits, and recently repaired by aid of a grant of £157 from the Ecclesiastical Commissioners, according to Lewis in 1837.
