Description Melvin states that the Dunmore estate had been inherited by the Gores in the early eighteenth century and that Ralph Gore resided at Dunmore during that century. His mansion was subsequently in use as a barracks until it was destroyed during the Civil War in the early twentieth century. Marked on the Taylor and Skinner map of 1778 as the residence of the Earl of Ross and also noted as "the fine seat of the Earl of Ross" by Wilson in 1786. In 1814 Leet noted "Dunmore Lodge" as the residence of John Egan.
