In the 1850s it had a rateable valuation of £38 and was owned and occupied by the Earl of Lanesborough. The lodge was situated in Quivvy Wood located on a peninsular of land that jutted out into the River Erne, north east of Belturbet. By 1906, its rateable valuation had risen to £52. It was burnt in the early 1920s and still stands as an impressive ruin, see archiseek.com |
