| Description |
Creagh Castle was acquired by Dr John Creagh in the late 18th century and passed to his daughter Mary and her husband, Kilner Brooke Brasier. Their second son, John Brasier-Creagh, inherited Creagh Castle and is credited with building the present house, the original one having been destroyed by a fire. George Washing Brasier Creagh held Castle Creagh in fee at the time of Griffith's Valuation. The buildings were valued at £50. The descendants of John's brother, George Washington Brasier Creagh, continued to live at Creagh Castle until the 1930s. In 1906 the building was valued at £44+ and occupied by Captain John Brazier Creagh. In the 1940s the Irish Tourist Association Survey noted that there was a castle formerly associated with the Coppinger family on this property. |
