In our catalogue, this photo was originally titled "Convamore, Co. Clare". Research by our Flickr Commons users established that this 'Big House' was actually between Mallow and Fermoy in Co. Cork. It belonged to the Earls of Listowel. The house was burnt by the IRA in 1921 during the War of Independence. According to an NIAH entry, some of the stables and lodge houses survive.
