SCENES from IRELAND


15. The Lismore Area, County Waterford

The Lodge built by the Kiely-Ussher's, near Lismore.

The Lodge built by Arthur Kiely-Ussher, near Lismore. It, like the towers below, where built to impress his very demanding wife who wished to live in a large house to impress the 'local society'. The cost of this neo-Gothic architecture was so great, they ran out of money, so that the great house was never built. The lodge and towers stand as a 'folly' in every sense of the word!

 

The Ballysaggartmore Towers built by the  Kiely-Ussher's, near Lismore.
