Loughderry House has been the home of the Rennick family for many generations.

Bailieborough Castle/Lisgar Castle	A Scottish planter named William Bailie built a castle here in the early 17th century. It passed into the possession of a number of prominent families Hamilton, Stewart and Corry until it was sold to Colonel William Young in 1814. His son, Sir John Young, later created 1st Baron Lisgar, built a new house on the site in the 1860s. At the end of the 19th century the house was sold to Sir Henry Cochrane and in 1915 to the Marist Brothers of Athlone.
