Description Thomas Gosselin was leasing this property from William Shirley Ball’s estate at the time of Griffiths Valuation when it was valued at £25. In 1837 Lewis noted “Fernsboro” as the seat of A. Burrows. It was also recorded as the seat of Alexander Burrowes by Leet in 1814. Fernsborough is no longer extant. Hussey de Burgh noted Thomas Gosselin as the proprietor of almost 300 acres in County Longford in the 1870s.
