History

In 1498, after the death of his daughter, Gilbert Ó Flannagáin had a church erected at Aghamore, which was known at that time as Achadh-Mor-Baile-Uí-Flannagáin, in the parish of Inishmacsaint in the Barony of Magheraboy.
O'Flanagan made his residence on an artificial island in Carrick Lough not far from his church.
In 1672, this townland was known as Aghamore in the Barony of Magheryboy, and was the medieval seat of the Ó Flannagáin dynasty.
