The house in Enniscorthy is Brownswood House and is in private ownership, not owned by the quarry. It is a protected structure. It served as a sanatorium in the 70’s and there was a woeful extension built alongside it. I’m not sure if this is still standing or not, but the house itself, which dates to the late 19th century is currently undergoing renovation as far as I know. (Or it was a couple of years ago) As you say it is a very imposing structure.There was some fantastic brick and stone detailing and a very impressive stairwell in the main entrance hall. It’s set back a good distance off the N11, so it’s not easily seen from the road,but you do catch a glimpse of the roof and upper floors on the right as you come into Enniscorthy from the Wexford side.
