Background
History
Local historian Leo Mulligan, MBE, details that at the time of the Plantation of Ulster there was a settlement of significance at Ederny, when the land grant (titled "Edernagh") was given to Captain Thomas Blennerhassett of Norfolk in 1610. He created the Manor of Edernagh on a 450 acre demesne and a court baron on the shores of Lough Erne, which he later named Castle Hassett. He established the new village of Ederny (Edernagh). By 1797, the settlement is recorded in the Topographia Hibernica as Ederny Bridge and "fair days" were held there.
