              Set of index cards describing the local features of the townland of Inis Leacan [Inishlackan]. The ownership of the island is outlined from the 17th century, tracing its custodianship from the O'Flaherty clan, to the Blakes, the Broughton family from 1835, and Robert Macready of Ballinafad who bought it in 1900. Other sources of information consulted during this are listed as the 1st Report of the Fishery Commissioners, which came out in 1836, and Alex and John's log books, as well as a book entitled 'Three Men on an Island'.

The features of Inis Leacan described here include Bodkin's House, some information about an account given by D'arcy Wentworth Thompson of a stay in Roundstone. Inis Leacan's school is also described, which closed in 1925 when the numbers fell below 25 pupils. The Mountain View Lodge, former home of the Broughton family, now a ruin is also described.
