Description Micah Cary Rankin was leasing this property to Mary Thompson at the time of Girffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £10. This property was built after the publication of the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map and is labelled Bridge Cottage on subsequent maps. The local Carndonagh Heritage Society has a record of a diary (held at PRONI) kept by John Norris Thompson recounting repairs to the house in the mid-1850s. Buildings are still extant at the site.
