Description Located at the southern tip of Lough Egish, Cherry Vale was situated in the midst of a linen manufacturing enterprise. Some deeds record George Crawford, linen draper, of Cherryvale at the end of the 18th century. Cherry Vale became part of the McTear of Belfast estate. The Ordnance Survey Field Name Book records the house as small with two stories. At the time of Griffith’s Valuation it was occupied by Thomas Johnston, who held it from Eliza McKean who in turn was leasing from George McTear.
