Description | An early 18th century house, the seat of the Lynch family in the 18th and 19th centuries. Wilson refers to it as the seat of Mr. Lynch on the shore of Lough Mask in 1786. In 1986 the house and immediate surrounds were vested in the county Galway Vocational Education Committee. The house and yard buildings have been completely renovated and now function as an Outdoor Education Centre. |
