Lisacul

Lisacul (Irish: Lios an Choill, meaning 'fort of the hazel tree')[1] is a village in County Roscommon, Ireland.

[4] The Lung takes its name from the Luighne people, who claimed ancestry from Lugh, the Celtic war deity.

Another, in Kiltybranks, has a cave: during the rural electrification scheme in the late 1950s human remains were found there.

Pollawaddy cave is located approximately 1.5 km southwest of Lisacul village in Carrownaknockaun townland.

The dedication plaque reads: (In memory of James Mulrennan, Eugene Kelly, Thomas Flannery, Patrick Mulrennan [and] Thomas McGowan who died for the republic of Ireland (1920-1923)) The original handball alley was built in 1916, using donated materials and voluntary labour.
