Description | A house marked as 'in ruins' on the 1915 edition of the 6 inch Ordnance Survey map. The Irish Tourist Association file describes Frenchgrove as the residence of the Blakes, later of the Frenches and finally of a man named Eager, a Dublin banker. No house of more than £3 valuation was recorded in Griffith's Valuation for the townland of Frenchgrove. A modern house now occupies the site with the remaining evidence of the old building. |
