A farmyard complex surviving as an interesting relic of the Solsborough House estate following the destruction (1933) and subsequent demolition (1980) of the eponymous country house described (1837) as 'a handsome mansion situated in a finely wooded demesne...commanding a pleasing view of the town of Enniscorthy and the river Slaney' (Lewis 1837 I, 357).
