" ... In 1916, the house was cleared and remained empty until 1950. It was inherited in July 1939 by Edwina Mountbatten, who, with her husband Admiral of the Fleet Louis Mountbatten, made several improvements, installing electricity and a mains water supply.[3] After his wife's death in February 1960, Mountbatten, the last Viceroy of India, spent his summers there until his death when his boat was blown up off the coast of Mullaghmore by the Provisional Irish Republican Army in August 1979 ...

Michael Collins was there, Account in Michael Collins' hand of his capture and detention in Sligo Gaol.
Suck Diesel said:
It held few prisoners by that time and was closed the following year
“The Gaol’s ‘panopticon’ or ‘all-seeing’ design centred around the Governor’s House, from which the cell block could be observed at all times. Both prisoner and guard were underconstant surveillance. The internal design was intended to allow for air circulation around
the buildings and its inmates, in order to avoid the spread of disease and sickness. There was separate accommodation for men, women, criminals, lunatics and children.

Public hangings outside the main gate and private hangings in the treadmill yard on the left.
Many earlier guests ‘emigrated’ to Oz
