Place & story
House and garden boundary
Fortview House occupies an elevated position above Mohill on Chapel Lane. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage dates the two-storey house to about 1850. Its symmetrical front and hipped slate roof distinguish it from the smaller adjoining streetscape. Stone outbuildings stand behind the house, while a garden wall, gate piers and cast-iron gate mark its boundary. The survey also records later extensions to the west and rear. [2]
