Description At the time of Griffiths Valuation, John R. Boyd was leasing this property from the Ecclesiastical Commissioners, when it was valued at £50. In 1837 Lewis had also recorded Ballymacool as the seat of J. Boyd. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests it was built c.1770 and continued in the ownership of the Boyd family until 1940. It is now a ruin.
