| Description |
In 1837 Lewis noted “Curraghgrane” as the seat of W.L. Galbraith. At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s, William F. Ryan was leasing this property from the Misses Bond, when it was valued at £20. In 1906 it was valued at over £47 and in the ownership of James Wilson. This was the birthplace of Field Marshal Sir Henry Wilson, Britain’s chief military advisor at the end of WWI, assassinated in London in 1922. Currygrane House was burned a few weeks later and subsequently demolished. Extensive outbuildings remain at the site. |
