My great-granddad and granny lived in Unshanagh for many years.

 

I live in Cushendun

 

My great granny and granddad went to school in Glendun primary school. It is now closed.

 

Further up the glen there is an old graveyard. It is called Kilgarvie graveyard. It was washed away by the moss flood in the 1960s. There was also an old church there. It was made of 'wattle and daub'. Sticks and twigs were woven together to make the frame and the spaces filled with mud to make the walls.

 

 In 1841 there were 32 people in Unshanagh, in 1851 there were 17 people and in 1901 there were 24 people. Today there are no people living in this townland.
