It is a three-bay two-storey house, built about 1800, with two storey wings on each side. Craddenstown House was the home of Lockhart Ramage in 1814 and 1837 so must refer to the Lodge. Lockhart Ramage was resident at the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1854), when the house was valued at £17 and held from the Earl of Longford. The census of 1911 records Lockhart Ramage aged 82, gentleman farmer, as head of the household. O’Brien writes that the house was sold in 2013 and it was on the market again in 2017. This house was more substantial than the other Craddanstown until the other was altered about 1860. Photo of Craddanstown Lodge

It was a five-bay three-storey over basement house, built in 1823 by John Fetherston inherited by his nephew Edward Briscoe of Riverdale (O’Brien). There must have been an earlier house as the Taylor and Skinner maps of the late 1770s mention Grangemore of Fetherston Esq. Leet records John Fetherston of Grangemore, Killucan in 1814 and it was the seat of Edward Briscoe in 1837 when it was described as 'a handsome house in a well-planted demesne'. Valued at £60 it was occupied by Captain William Graham at the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1854) and held from the Briscoes minors.
