Place & story
A house on the Dwyer estate
Woodlands in Stradbally North was J. Tuthill’s residence in 1837, according to the Landed Estates Database. At Griffith’s Valuation, Captain John S. Rich occupied the house, which was valued at £35; the database cautiously suggests that he let rooms to lodgers. A different picture appears in the Irish Tourist Association survey of 1942: the house was then M. D. Shaw’s home and retained a library, paintings and drawings. These records follow both its occupants and the contents of a substantial parish residence. [2]
