Dripsey Castle House to become €2m family home

The Georgian manor house, built by John Colthurst and his wife Jane Bowen in the late 18th century and which was latterly owned by the O’Shaughnessy family who set up Dripsey Woollen Mills, had been on the market for just six months before being sold at the end of last year.

The house, which is in need of considerable investment, was purchased by a UK-based buyer with Cork connections. It’s believed it will be restored to a family home.
