"THE MANOR HOUSE, Benburb, lies between Armagh and Dungannon in County Tyrone. It was built in 1888-90, to the designs of the architect William Henry Lynn, for James Bruce, a Belfast businessman who had bought the Benburb estate from the Viscount Powerscourt a few years previously. Lord Powerscourt owned 9,230 acres of land in County Tyrone. ...........The new dwelling (which is generally similar in style to other Lynn compositions of this period, such as Riddel Hall and Campbell College), was constructed by the Belfast firm of James Henry & Sons. James Bruce died childless in 1917 and the manor house and remaining lands (307 acres in all) were sold to a consortium of three men, Robert Pollock and James Cooper of Enniskillen and James Smith of Liverpool. Soon Cooper sold out to Pollock and Smith to William Todd, who was in partnership with Robert Boyd. They then bought out Pollock’s share and planned to turn the house into a hotel, but by 1935 Todd was declared bankrupt and much of the outlying, remaining lands were sold. ......and in 1946 it was acquired for by the Catholic Parish of Clonfeacle for £12,000. Local clergy originally intended the building to be used as an orphanage or a collegiate, but in 1949 they sold it (for £26,000) to an American branch of The Servite Fathers. The Order retains the property to this day, as a community centre" lordbelmontinnorthernireland.blogspot.com/2014/01/benburb...
