Description Built in the late 18th century, this house was originally the home of the Forster family. Described in the Ordnance Survey Field Name Book as a ‘handsome modern structure’. Griffith’s Valuation records William Forster as the occupant holding the property in fee. The buildings were valued at £50. The Haire Forsters lived here at the beginning of the 20th century but by 1911 were leasing Ballynure to William Maxwell Scott Moore, Resident Magistrate. This house is now a ruin.
