The Moores Of Moore Hall
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
Moore Hall, or Moorehall, the house and estate of George Henry Moore and family, is situated to the south of the village Carnacon in the barony of Carra, County Mayo in a karst limestone landscape. Named for the aristocratic Irish family who built the estate between 1792 and 1795, Moore Hall lies on Muckloon Hill overlooking Lough Carra.[1] The house was designed by the Irish architect John Roberts. Several members of the Moore family played major parts in the social, cultural and political history of Ireland from the end of the eighteenth century to the early twentieth century. The house was burned down in 1923 by anti-Treaty IRA during the Irish Civil War as Maurice Moore was viewed as pro-Treaty. No dust jacket, slight marks on the boards. Includes a newspaper clipping of Peter Moore who served in WW2 and a couple of letters to R W Moore from the publishers from Methuen & Co.
