On 21 April 1457, An Mumhain expanded again, receiving two new towns: Cill Chaoi, a lake town and Inis, an orchard town. Loch Garman, a lake town, was originally part of Laighean County. It has a complicated history of being passed back and forth between An Mumhain and Laighean but now remains stable within the county of Laighean. Cill Chaoi, a lake town, part of An Mumhain County, was taken by the NNGO to form what the group called Antoville, from May 17th, 1457 until it was retaken by a small band of loyalists on February 27th, 1458, and returned to the county on March 13, 1458.
