What is recorded here

Curraghmore House is a castle in County Waterford where a medieval tower survived inside a later country home. The le Poers held the land in the seventeenth century, and John Power, Baron Curraghmore, was recorded there in 1640. Around 1700 a new house closed around the old tower, leaving its narrow stairs buried beneath a younger facade. The Marquis of Waterford still owns the place, so the old stone and the later rooms continue to share one address.
