House name Description
Ballinderry Detached four-bay two-storey country house, built about 1870, replacing an earlier house built by Sarah Kelly. The stable block appears to be 18th century. The estate was bought in 1840 by solicitor Edmond Kelly of Rookwood House, Co Roscommon, who also owned Kiltoom House, Athlone. At the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1854) Sarah Kelly was the occupant of the house valued at £19. She held it in fee. It was inherited by her nephew Robert Bailey whose descendants lived at Ballinderry until the mid-20th century when it was bought by the Land Commission. The house is extant. Photo of Ballinderry
