À propos

MOYANNA, a parish, in the barony of STRADBALLY, QUEEN'S county, and province of LEINSTER, 1 mile (N.) from Stradbally, on the road to Monastereven; containing 1659 inhabitants. This parish comprises 5697 statute acres, of which 65 are woodland. The state of agriculture has improved greatly, the progress of which is much promoted by the quantities of excellent limestone here: and its vicinity to the southern branch of the Grand Canal affords great facility for disposing of the produce. James Grattan, Esq., M. P., who has a pretty shooting-lodge here, has erected a handsome bridge over the Barrow at Dunrally fort. A party of the constabulary police is stationed at Vicars-town. It is a rectory and vicarage, in the diocese of Leighlin: the rectory is impropriate in the Provost and Fellows of Trinity College, Dublin, and the vicarage forms part of the union of Stradbally.

The tithes amount to £417. 8. 4., of which two-thirds are payable to the impropriators and the remainder to the vicar.

In the R. C. divisions also it forms part of the union or district of Stradbally: it is in contemplation to build a chapel at the village of Vicarstown. In the National school at Moyanna, and a school at Vicarstown, supported by Mrs. Grattan, about 200 children are educated. The church is in ruins.
