Owned by Sir Thomas Esmonde and burned in March 1923, apparently. https://wexfordcivilwararchaeology.com/2018/02/17/the-destruction-of-ballynastragh-house-gorey-march-1923/

Sir Thomas Edmonde at thepeerage dot com. There is a "new" house on the site dated 1937 at the NIAH which says it has a connection with the Esmondes up to Sir John Henry Grattan Esmonde (1928-87), sixteenth Baronet. thepeerage says Sir Osmond Thomas Grattan Esmonde, 12th Bt, was a TD for Wexford from 1923-36. And Sir John Lymbrick Esmonde, 14th Bt, was a TD from 1937-43 and 48-51. Sir John Henry Grattan Esmonde, 16th Bt, was a TD from 73-77. The current Bt, Sir Thomas Francis Grattan Esmonde, 17th Bt is a doctor and surgeon, not a TD.

Possible Webbs in 1901. The building form says 7 windows to the front, which looks right.
Niall McAuley said:
In 1911, that building is a Public House, so this is earlier than that (not much help!).

Well, the NIAH seems to think this house is a myth, anyway.

It appears to be facing west, which is unusual.

Is it a side view of Courtown House?

Sharon Corbet The style seems quite different. Which side do you think it is? (You're link's not working)
