1870s – Meen Glas House, Stranorlar, Co. Donegal

0024

A mid-sized Victorian house in a simple Tudor-Revival style with steep roofs and gables; and mullioned windows. It had a three-sided bow; and a dormer window with tracery; a slender, square turret at the junction of the main block and service wing, with a sprocketed pyramidal roof. Known locally as The Castle, with a large heavily wooded demesne, no trace of the house or ancillary structures now remain. The house was demolished in 1948.
