C17th HOUSE & BAWN: MANOR HIGHGATE in Fargrim

C17th HOUSE & BAWN: MANOR HIGHGATE

What is recorded here

Manor Highgate stands in County Fermanagh as a seventeenth-century house and bawn, its boundary walls still drawing a line around domestic life and field. The post-medieval structure likely served as a local centre of residence, defence or administration, though the exact room where people argued, loved or fled remains unknown. The preserved bawn suggests a household confident enough to mark its own territory on the landscape.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as C17th HOUSE & BAWN: MANOR HIGHGATE. Recorded period: POST-MED; C17TH. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Manor Highgate in Fargrim was built in the 17th century and is remembered as a historic manor house and bawn, reflecting the post-medieval estate system in Northern Ireland. Its significance lies in its association with early landholding patterns and domestic architecture of the period.
