A Georgian Gothic mausoleum representing an important component of the mid nineteenth-century built heritage of County Wexford with segregated chambers allegedly housing the remains of Ross MacMahon (d. 1857), 'Civil Engineer late of Rossgrove [sic] in the County of Wexford…who died at Indore Presidency of Bombay India' (Calendars of Wills and Administrations 1859, 169); and Captain Jeremiah Lonsdale Pounden (d. 1887), 'late of Brownswood County Wexford' (Calendars of Wills and Administrations 1887, 565).
