Corgrig House | Gerald Griffin was the proprietor of Corgrig in 1826, Mrs Griffin occupied Congrieff in 1837 and Gerald Griffin held Corgrig from Lord Monteagle in the early 1850s. The Ordnance Field Name Books state that Peter Griffin was the proprietor circa 1840 and that his father had erected this house about 80 years previously. It is still extant though with modern housing now occupying much of the surrounding area. The 25-inch Ordnance Survey map of the 1890s also shows a house known as Corgrig Lodge in the same townland at R253511. | |
