Sheehan family Woodford/Looscaun Galway

GalwayWoodford Looscaun (Galway)

My maternal grandmother, Margaret Sheehan, was born in Woodford Looscaun in 1884, she and her two brothers emigrated to Liverpool sometime between 1901 and 1911.  The 1901 and 1911 census records the Sheehan family were living in house 5, Clonco townland in Woodford. I am visiting Woodford from 18-22 May 2024 and would love to see the area where the family were living and the house itself, if it is still extant. If anyone can help with this, I would be very grateful. Many thanks, Liz Geran.
