Later the home of the Deane Freeman family who enlarged the building at the beginning of the 19th century. Advertised for sale in 1852, Bence Jones writes that it was bought by Richard Barry.

The house was considerably extended post Griffith's Valuation. James McCarthy of Currymount owned 259 acres in the 1870s. In the late 19th century Eustace Morrogh Bernard lived at Curraghmore. Bought by the Purcells of Burton Park in the second decade of the 20th century as a dower house and passed by marriage to the Bird family. The Irish Tourist Association Survey refers to it as the seat of Major Bird in the 1940s and also that the Morrogh-Bernard family resided here before going to live at Byblox.
