Description Home of the Westropp family in the 18th and 19th centuries and occupied by Colonel John Westropp in 1814. The Ordnance Survey Field Name Books circa 1840 state that John Westropp built the house in 1809 on the site of the former house. By 1837 it had passed to his nephew Edmond Odell who had assumed the name Westropp. Ballysteen valued at £40 was held by Edmund Westropp in fee at the time of Griffith's Valuation and in 1906 by Richard Westropp when its value had increased to almost £45.
