At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Aquilla Smith, MD, was leasing a property from the Holmes estate valued at £38. In addition Smith was leasing another property, valued at £15, to the Nenagh Poor Law Guardians, for use as an auxiliary workhouse. By the publication of the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map of the 1890s, a more substantial house at the site has become known as Yewston House. The building at the site now is known as The Manor and is in use as a nursing home. |
