Description | Castlekeale and Shepperton or Shepherdsfield houses were both located in the townland of Ballysallagh West. Weir writes that the Fitzgerald family moved from Castlekeale to Shepperton in the latter part of the 18th century. The house appears to have been leased out to many different people, such as John Wrixton in 1814, John Gabbutt in 1837 and Captain William J. Owen in the 1850s when the house was valued at £22. Weir writes that the house is now demolished. |
