Description Dardistown, described by O’Brien as a two-storey, three-bay Georgian house, a Fetherstonhaugh home in the late 18th century. In 1837 Lewis records ‘Durdistown’ as the seat of Theobald Fetherstonhaugh. By the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1854) the Metge family was in possession. John Branigan held the house valued at £12 from John C ‘Medge’ Metge. The Simons family were living in a first class house at Dardistown at the beginning of the 20th century. Buildings still occupy the site.
