Place & story
An estate sale preserved in the catalogue
The National Archives’ public catalogue lists sale particulars for part of William P. Segrave’s Borranstown estate in Ballymadun parish. They advertised an auction for 8 November 1834 and included a map. A separate listed survey of part of Borranstown was made by Brassington & Gale that year. Both records belong to the Segrave documents, accession 2002/75. These catalogue descriptions document the advertised sale and associated mapping; they do not establish who bought every lot or the prices paid. [2]
