Description Kilbarry was bought by the Warrens in the late 17th century. The house Warren's Court was built in the 18th century and was the main seat of this family in the 18th and 19th centuries. In 1750 Smith refers to Kilbarry the "handsome house" of Robert Warren. Wilson notes it as "the fine seat of Thomas Warren" in 1786. In 1894 Slater refers to it as the seat of Sir A. Warren. In 1906 it was valued at £66 and occupied by Sir Augustus Riversdale Warren.. It was burnt in June 1921 during the War of Independence when it was the residence of Sir Augustus D. Warren. The original house is no longer extant. In the 1940s the Irish Tourist Association Survey reported that a modern two-storey house had been constructed nearby.
