  • 1. Major Samuel Perry, Formerly of Moycullen House, Had a Sister Who
    Moycullen Local History Quiz Number Thirteen– Answers We hope you enjoyed this quiz. 1. Major Samuel Perry, formerly of Moycullen House, had a sister who was the first woman in Europe to do what? Answer: In 1906, from Queen’s College Galway (now NUIG), Alice Jacqueline Perry (1885-1969) became the first woman in Europe to graduate with a degree in Engineering (first class honours degree in Civil Engineering). Following her father James’ death the same year, she succeeded him temporarily as County Surveyor for Galway County Council - a post he had held since before her birth. Alice was an unsuccessful candidate when the permanent appointment was made. She still remains the only woman to have served as a County Surveyor (County Engineer) in Ireland. She died in Boston, USA, where she had been working within the Christian Science movement as a poetry editor and practitioner. In 2017 NUIG named their Engineering building in her honour. (Major Samuel Perry [1879-1945] was the only brother of Alice and her four sisters, Molly, Nettie, Agnes and Martha) 2. Where in Moycullen would you find Hangman’s Hill? Answer: The hill just behind Tullokyne school, along the esker road, is known as Cnoch an Crocadóir or Hangman’s Hill or also as Cnochán an Chrochta, the Hill of the Hanging. Local lore refers to a soldier being hung on the site. 3.

  • Pic 1. Who in Moycullen Would Have Used This Item And
    Moycullen Local History Quiz Number Two – Answers We hope you enjoyed this quiz. Pic 1. Who in Moycullen would have used this item and when? Answer: This is an altar stone and would have been used by the local roman catholic parish priest when holding masses outside the parish church, ie at mass rocks, stations, wakes. The altar stone would often be made from marble or slate, it was consecrated and the etching of the five crosses would have represented Christ’s wounds on the cross – two hands, side and two feet. Moycullen parish are lucky to still retain several altar stones from our local past. Pic 2. You might know where in Moycullen this structure is, but what was its purpose? Answer: This pyramid is situate on the shore of Lough Corrib in Annagh townland and is a fishery boundary marker.

The pyramid at Annagh, and a corresponding marker on the opposite side of the lake, indicated the points from where therein to Galway city was Galway Fisheries territory. It is recorded as Register Number 717 on the Record of Protected Structures of Ireland. Pic 3. What did this item do?

  • A Moycullen Miscellany: History, Architecture and the Archaeology of the N59 Moycullen Bypass TII Heritage 8
    A Moycullen Miscellany weaves together many strands in the story of an attractive village with a colourful history and a pleasing mix of old and new architecture. The village lies between the fertile limestone basin of Lough Corrib and the upland granite country of Miscellany: A Moycullen Connemara. Archaeological excavations on the N59 Moycullen Bypass route have identified new evidence for prehistoric and early medieval settlement in this landscape, including the first Neolithic farmers. This evidence is corroborated by fossil pollen from a local peat bog, which records the advance and retreat of woodlands as successive human communities cleared the land for tillage and pasture throughout prehistory. In medieval times Anglo-Norman conquerers built a castle and church near the lake, but their manor of Gnó Beg (an ancient name for Moycullen) was afterwards ceded to the O’Flahertys, the Gaelic medieval lords of Connemara. By early modern times the choicest land was occupied by big landowners and their mansion houses, while their Bypass of the N59 Moycullen and the archaeology architecture History, tenants lived in clustered cabins on the rugged hillslopes. From the 1830s the modern village began to converge around a crossroads created by Alexander Nimmo when he engineered a new road from Galway Bay to Lough Corrib. Though the village continues to grow, the crossroads is still at its heart. JERRY O’SULLIVAN is a TII Archaeologist based in the National Roads Project Office at Galway County Council. His professional interests are very broad and his previously published work includes books and essays on archaeological conservation, research, regulation and best practice.
