“Its History
Rathellen is a two storey, eight bay house that was built in the early 19th Century as a dower house for the Wood family of Woodville.
The house was first resided in 1826 by Capt James Wood, J.P. eldest son of James Wood who was High Sheriff with his widowed mother Judith and 10years later it was occupied by 2nd son of James of Woodville and his two sisters Margareth and Mary.
In 1860 the house was advertised for lease and described as 'a beautiful marine house' with acres and also described as 'the leafy suburban villa'.
In the same year the house was leased to the merchant Henry Lyons, J.P. who was a native to Scotland and came to settle in Sligo in 1835, he was mayor in 1860 and 1867, and a member of the Town and Harbour Commissioner and Corporation.
The house was leased to his son Alexander who sublet the house for a short time to Capt. George A. Bedford, then Roger D. Robinson, then to Patrick C. Howley.
Alexander succeeded his father in 1870, and for the remainder of the century Rathellen was his home. In 1888 he married Ellen Culbertson who was the daughter of Robert Culbertson of Ballisodare Mills.
Alexander was a popular man of his days occupying such positions such as Director of Messrs. Henry Lyons & Co. of the Sligo Steam Navigation Co. and the Sligo Gas Co. and also was Harbour Commissioner, a Grand Juror and a Governor of the Co. Infirmary.
After Alexanders death in 1900, the house was leased to a number of tenants until 1945 when Mary Lyons sold the house and its 12acres to John C.Cleeve and his wife for £3,000.
John was a retired Mayor, he had fought in the Indian Army and the two World Wars.
John died 3years later and the house was sold to Alfred Barrett Woods of Castle Street.
In 2002 the house was purchased by the Sligo Borough Council. It has since remained vacant and vandalised”

Suck Diesel "... vacant and vandalised". Not what we wanted to hear. Unless there's been a change more recently than 2002?

This young woman most likely wanted to preserve the importance of having a cat and a dog in her life, so they were included in this photograph.
