Description |
Home of the Richardson family in the 18th and 19th centuries, Lewis records Major E. Richardson as proprietor. The house is named on the 1st edition 6 inch Ordnance Survey map (1836) surrounded by parkland and an extensive walled garden. The buildings were valued at £30 circa 1860 when John Richardson was the occupier holding the property from Robert Ellis. Edward John Richardson was resident in the early 20th century. In the 1940s St Patrick’s Agricultural College was established at Poplar Vale. |
