In 1837 Lewis mentions it as the "beautiful seat of the Knight of Kerry". At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was valued at £31. In 1906 it was still the property of the Knight of Kerry and valued at £75. In 1943 the Irish Tourist Association survey noted that it was the owned by Lord Monteagle.
