Geocache Description:


A park and grab in the historic village (or hamlet) of Glenoshhen.

Glenosheen was home the the Joyce Brothers, Patrick Weston and Robert Dwyer, who were the foremost historians, music collectors and place name experts in Ireland in the late nineteenth and early 20th century. The house they lived in is at the top of the village and has a plaque on the wall.

Just around the corner from the cache (turn left on the main road) are two homes that were built to house some of the Palatines that were invited to the area by the Castleoliver estate when in September 1709, almost 3000 Palatines were relocated from Germany to rural Ireland.
