| Description |
Moate View is situated on the outskirts of the town of Moate and predates much of the town. It is a detached five-bay two-storey house, built 1762, verified by a cut stone date stone inscribed ‘James Clibborn built this house anno domini 1762’. O’Brien writes that James Clibborn was the son of Joshua Clibborn and his wife Sarah Lecky. His second son William Cooper Clibborn inherited the house and was the occupant at the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1854) holding the building valued at £32 from Thomas H Mulock MP. It is still the home of Clibborn family members. |
