Eileen


A sweet photo of Eileen Sweeney, a member of the family who lived at the house for most of the first half of the 20th century.

If the house could speak, what tales it would tell...

Is that photo taken at the house itself?

Because of the wooden wall, it looks like the living room downstairs.

It is the living room. When we bought the house it had wood panelling. However the panelling was destroyed but damp rot and in 1978 we had it replaced by plaster. That didn't work either. About ten years ago Willie Ahearne stripped the wall bare and pointed the stone.
