    (continued from previous page)
    There was a gate-house at each end of the avenue leading to the house, and a gate man lived in each of them. Mr Dowl lived in Skehard and also the Mc Donnaghs.
    About twenty years ago it was dismantled, and its material was used for the building of the tenant houses in the place.
