Conveyance Of Muckross Demesne

Conveyance of Muckross Demesne from Arthur Baron Ardilaun to William Bowers Bourn (1911).

Lord Ardilaun and his wife Olivia purchased Muckross House together with its demesne and some other lands in November 1899.
Olivia was a niece of Colonel Henry Arthur Herbert, the man responsible for building Muckross House.

The Ardilauns spent very little time at Muckross. Instead, it was largely let out as a hunting and shooting lodge.

The Ardilauns sold the property in 1911 to Mr William Bowers Bourn, a wealthy American.
