Lisnasliggan is a townland of 568 acres in County Down, Northern Ireland.[1] It is situated in the civil parish of Annaclone and the historic barony of Iveagh Upper, Upper Half.[2]
In 1834 it was recorded that there were still ‘seven ancient forts’ in Lisnasliggan.[1] The townland also contains the Church of Ireland church of Christ Church built in 1860.[3] It is a small Gothic church with three lancet windows on each side, a gabled porch on the south side, vestry on the north side and a bell-gable over the west façade.[4]
