Woodstock Estate Report an error with this listing

The estate was home to the Tighe family who built Woodstock House in 1745.

The house was burnt down on 2 July 1922 during the Irish Civil War after troops from the Free State Army were withdrawn from the premises on 1 July 1922 and the house left unguarded. The property had been occupied in 1921 by the Black and Tans and Auxiliaries which caused much local resentment.
