| Description |
Fairfield was the birthplace of the Reverend John Richard Darley in 1799 who became Bishop of Kilmore in 1874. Facing the shore of Inner Lough it is named on the 1st edition 6 inch Ordnance Survey Map (1836). The Field Name Book states that it was the property of Lord Cremorne let to the former proprietor Mr Corry. Griffith’s Valuation records Lord Cremorne as the occupier holding it in fee. The buildings were valued at £23. By the early 20th century this house was no longer in use. The site is now surrounded by a forest. |
