Recorded by Thomas Dineley in 1681 as a ‘neat box belonging to Mr Abraham Vanhogarden, who built it.’ (Shirley et al. 1864-7, 188). In 1620, it was ‘included in the Earl of Thomond's patent. Isaack Vanhogarden was placed here at the Cromwellian Settlement, but at the Restoration, the Earl of Thomond leased the lands to John Wright and Humphrey Rogers for ninety-nine years, with the condition that they should build a stone house with chimneys, one and a-half stories high, 40 ft. by 18 ft., floored with boards, and covered with slate or shingles. The improvements made by this tenant are stated to have cost £600.’ (ibid. 189, n. 17) The existing Querrin House dates from the 18th century though it is possible that it may incorporate fabric from the earlier house.
