What is recorded here
Castlecuffe in County Laois lost the house and let the stables fall to ruins, but kept the grand entrance gates. That’s a fierce commitment to keeping out the neighbours: demolish the place before you’d let them see the sitting room.
Stable complex, c. 1810, comprising group of detached rubble sandstone outbuildings. Now in ruins. Site of Castlecuffe to site. Castlecuffe now demolished. Gateway to site comprising sandstone piers with wrought-iron gates.
From the Buildings of Ireland (National Inventory of Architectural Heritage) record 12800204
