The outbuildings at Hollymount are well built with particularly fine features such as sandstone dressing to the carriage arch and in particular the cantilevered stairs. This outbuilding and yard would have contributed positively to the setting of Hollymount House. The quality of the outbuildings indicate that Hollymount was a fine country house built by a wealth landowner. Hollymount was built around 1730 and belonged first to the Algeo family. In 1840 it was the property of Simon Armstrong.
