Glasstown

[1]) is a townland in the civil parish of Kildallan, barony of Tullyhunco, County Cavan, Ireland.

Its chief geographical features are small streams and spring wells.

In the Plantation of Ulster King James VI and I by grant dated 23 July 1610 granted the Manor of Clonyn or Taghleagh, which included this townland, to Sir Alexander Hamilton of Innerwick, Scotland.

[3] On 29 July 1611 Arthur Chichester, 1st Baron Chichester and others reported that - Sir Alexander Hamilton, Knt, 2,000 acres in the county of Cavan; has not appeared: his son Claud took possession, and brought three servants and six artificers; is in hand with building a mill; trees felled; raised stones and hath competitent arms in readiness.

Besides there are arrived upon that portion since our return to Dublin from the journey, as we are informed, twelve tenants and artificers who intend to reside there and build upon the same.
