Description
Firgrove was a late 18th-century house, likely built between 1780 and 1799, and enlarged around 1850. It was located in the townland of Moylinny, near Muckamore, Antrim. The house was originally a two-storey, eight-bay rendered building with attics and three dormers on the south side. Its windows were 12-pane arched. A single-storey, segmental-faced wing extended to the east, featuring glazed doors flanked by tall, plain sash windows. The outbuildings had lozenge-paned windows. The interior was noted for its plasterwork. Firgrove appeared on the Ordnance Survey map of 1832 and stood on the site of a monument, recorded as SMR no ANT 140. The house has since been demolished and replaced by a business park. It was delisted on 21 April 1994.
