Description St Marks named on first edition OS map and on the 25 inch map, is now a ruin. It was the home of the Potts family, occupied by John Potts in 1814 and 1837 and by William Potts at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when the building was valued at £16.10. O’Brien writes that in the 1860s the house came into the possession of the Magan family. The house was twice destroyed by fire . On the second occasion it was not rebuilt and the stables were converted into a residence.
