Doneraile Court

            iPhone4 + Pro HDR image using the Antique filter HSS & HWW! 

The date 1725, on the front of Doneraile Court, has led to the belief that it was built on that date for the St Leger famiy, but this is challenged by the story of the Lady Freemason: daughter of the first Viscount who overheard a meeting of a Freemason Lodge being held in Doneraile Court.  On being discovered it was considered necessary to induct her into the Freemasons to secure her secrecy. The room in which this event took place is usually pointed out as being on the right hand side of the present entrance hall of Doneraile Court.  The Lady Freemason's tombstone records that this event took place in 1712. The most likely theory then is that the original house on the site of Doneraile Court was the home of some of the St Legers from the 1690's, and that 1725 is a date of major renovation
