In 1837, Samuel Lewis's Topographical Dictionary of Ireland described Dunglow like this:
DUNGLOE, or CLOGHANLEA, a post-town, in the parish of TEMPLECROAN, barony of BOYLAGH, county of DONEGAL, and province of ULSTER, 19 ½ miles (N.) from Ardara, and 154 (N. W.) from Dublin, on the north-west coast: the population is returned with the parish. Here are a market-house, constabulary police station, and dispensary; also the parochial church, and R. C, chapel. The post-office is subject to that at Ardara. Petty sessions are held on the first Tuesday in each month.
