Originally built as a two storey house for General Robert King by John Nash. In 1822 an extra floor was added and after a fire in the 1860s it was rebuilt.
Known for a very fine interior, the house was destroyed by fire in 1957 and demolished. In 1973, a viewing platform, the Moylurg tower was built on the north west corner of the house
