Ullick Burke built this formidable stronghouse after he was created a baronet in 1628. Its most distinctive features are the two chimney stacks, each with a row of five diagonally set chimneys that tower above the roofline, the mullion and transom windows of the upper three storeys, and the square bartizans on the outermost corners of the south side.
