• Cassell's 1899:

  Lehinch, village, parish of Kilmanaheen (q.v.), West county Clare, Ireland, 2 miles west of Ennistimon ; it is a pretty and rising watering-place. The church is modern, and there is also a Roman Catholic chapel. Lehinch is the headquarters for tourists to "The Hag's Head" and the Cliffs of Moher, to which a regular car service runs daily. Lehinch has good hotel accommodation, and is much resorted to for its excellent sea-bathing and its long, firm, even sands. Here are celebrated golf-links. There is good salmon-, trout-, and sea-fishing. Population: 257.
