Description In 1786 Wilson refers to "Portacairn" as the seat of Mr. French. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, there is no house with a substantial valuation in this townland, then in the possession of Marianne Nolan. There is no visible sign of the house now, some walls and parts of the stable yard remain.
