Amenities in Carracastle parish from Irish Tourist Association Survey, 1944
Caracastle is described by the surveyor as “…hardly deserving the term of village” as it consisted at the time of the church, parochial house, one shop, a hall and about six houses. Naturally, amenities were practically non-existent.. No schools are listed. Interestingly, under the heading of “Industries and handcrafts” there is mention of a clog factory near Charlestown, but in Carracastle parish. This was owned by Mr. Parsons of Charlestown.
