Description |
Phillip Kiernan was leasing Ballinree House from the Moore O’Farrell estate at the time of Griffiths Valuation, when it was valued at £5. A larger house is shown on the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map of the early 20th century. A house and large farm occupy the site now. This house was associated with the Farrell family in the 18th century as local sources recall "Bonny Pat Farrell" a United Irishman killed at the Battle of Granard in 1798. |
