| Description | In 1814 the Reverend Nicholas Goslin occupied Lake View, Mountnugent, close to the shore of Lough Ramor. The house is named on the first edition six inch Ordnance Survey map (publ. 1837). In August 1847 T. Drapes, a medical doctor, died at Lake View, Mountnugent, of typhus fever (The Medical Times, XVI, 542). James Blakely was the occupier in the mid-19th century holding the property from the trustees of the Marquess of Headfort. The buildings were valued at £12.10.0. for rates. This house is still extant with an extensive courtyard of outbuildings. |
