| Description |
Francis Hassard of Tircahan Lodge, also known as Rockwood, is recorded in a sale rental of the Encumbered Estates Court in 1852. He sold part of his estate to Robert Hutton. In the mid-19th century Tircahan Lodge, a building named on the first edition six inch Ordnance Survey map (publ. 1837), was occupied by Henry Breen, who held the house, valued at £8, from Robert Hutton. It is located south of Swanlinbar. In the 1890s the original lodge was replaced by a larger more compact building which still stands today although now derelict. Robert Hutton JP lived here with his family in the early 20th century. In 1906, Georgina Hutton was recorded as the occupier when the 'mansion' house was valued at £17 for rates. |
