The Dawson family, who owned the Dartrey estate, built this mansion, known locally as “Dartrey Castle” (designed by the Scottish architect William Burn) in 1846 LinkExternal link (Archive LinkExternal link )
This Gothic-style ‘Elizabethan Revival’ mansion lasted only a century. When the beautiful Dartrey estate was sold to forestry in about 1950, this great building was demolished and sold brick by brick. Further on the Dartrey estate LinkExternal link
