First page of Irish Tourist Association Survey, Lacken parish, 1943

The Irish Tourist Association Survey for Lacken parish was carried out by Conor O'Brien in 1943. Lacken is described as a parish with no town or village but with much beautiful scenery particularly on the coast. The area is interesting from a historical point of view with a number of antiquities listed and the site of the landing of the French forces at Kilcummin strand is also in the parish. The headings for the survey are listed below. Clicking on a heading will open the relevant section in the survey.
