1654-6 Civil Survey (Inistioge and Callan, Co. Kilkenny)

153 East Street, Callan

Phillipp Trassy Ir. Pa. (Proprietor)

John Pressick Pt. (Tenant)

A thatched barn, length 56 foot, breadth 21. A haggard & a garden 20 perch.

The last street in the survey is East Street, now called Mill St., which has thirty four listed properties (133 to 166). The location of Butler properties here suggests that the sequence started in the centre of the town on the south side of the street. This appears to be confirmed by the lack of gardens with the first four properties (133 to 136), which were otherwise substantial buildings, presumably because they backed directly onto the graveyard as is the case with their present-day successors. The main part of Peirce Butler's property in the town was at the east end of East St. (Bll to B15 on the map; 143, 145-8, 152 and 154 in the survey). He had a large strong tower house (147) attached to the gate, which according to Carrigan was known as Cúirt Phiarais.
