| Description |
In 1786 Wilson refers to Grange as the seat of Mr. Jones. It is possible that he is referring to the house then at Grangemore, in the parish of Templeboy. By the time of Griffith's Valuation, this townland was part of the estate of William Phibbs and the house, occupied by Thomas McKinn, was valued at £3. McTernan writes that in the mid-17th century, this property was known as Curhow and was owned by Theophilus Jones. It was subsequently sublet to the Wood family and purchased by Phibbs from the Cooper of Coopershill estate in the 1790s. |
