Bhíodh Siúracha na Trócaire anso i lár bhaile na hInse. Insítear stair an cheantair thar 6,000 bliain sa mhusaem ina bhfuil déantúis láimhe agus páinéil téacsanna. Mínítear cúrsaí trí mheán na ríomhaireachta agus trí chóras clos-amharc. Ainmnítear é san Acht na nInstitiúidí Cultúrtha Naisúinta 1997 agus tá baint mhór acu le forbairt pobail tríd an suíomh idirlín agus laistigh de thionscnaimh éagsúla. Tagann sé seo le polasaí uileghabhálach an Chomhairle Chontae.
