Detached six-bay two-storey over basement country house, built 1776 by the Dalys. It replaced an early fortified house dating from the 1600s. A projecting two-storey wing was added about 1880 by the Odells. In 1814 and 1837 it was the seat of Joseph Morgan Daly. It was sold in the Encumbered Estates Court in 1850 and bought by a Scotsman George McDonnell who held it in fee at the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1854) when it was valued at £40. In the 1860s it was bought by Thomas Scruton Odell and it remained in the possession of the Odell family until 1961 when it was sold to the Land Commission. It was later renamed Kilcleagh Park when it became a hotel. Now known as Castledaly Manor and in use as a Christian Centre.
