L’Estrange who held the property from William Hague of Cavan, father of William Hague, architect of Cavan and Dublin. In 1876 William Hague held 459 acres in county Cavan. In the 1880s Kilnacrott became the home of the Lynch family. In 1906, Charles Lynch was resident. He died in 1913 (see will administrations in the National Archives). From 1930 the building was used as a school by the Holy Trinity Priory. In 1954 a grant of arms was issued to the Rt Reverend Felim Cornelius Colwell, Lord Abbot of the Abbey of the Holy Trinity of the Canons Regular of Premontre at Kilnacrott, Co Cavan, and to the Community, see National Library, GO MS 111H: 27-28.
