Lissadell House closure: 11 to lose jobs
The owners of the ancestral home of 1916 leader, Countess Markievicz, and her sister, the poet and suffragette Eva Gore-Booth, will close it to the public from next Monday.
Barristers Edward Walsh and Constance Cassidy, who bought the historic estate in 2003, said the decision had been forced on them by the actions of Sligo County Council.
