Dunleckney Manor
Dunleckney Manor,
Bagenalstown, County Carlow is the subject of this sepia
photograph by E. F Barton c.1870. It shows the
main avenue approach to Dunleckney Manor. This house was
the ancient seat of the Bagenals of Idrone. In 1660
Dudley Bagenal regained his father's estate which had
been earlier confiscated because of the part played by
Sir Walter in the Confederate War. Dudley supported King
James at the Battle of the Boyne and lost the estate
again but it was later regained by Dudley's son Walter
in 1712. In 1785 Sarah Bagenal heiress of the Bagenal
Estate married Philip Newton of Bennekerry. In circa
1850 the house was renovated by the architect Daniel
Robertson in the Tudor style.
