HI
THERE IS A LORD AND LADY CROFTON IN AROUND THE SLIGO AREA. I THINK THE 'BIG HOUSE' IS CALLED LONGFORD HOUSE. TRY SEARCHING FOR 'BIG HOUSES IN IRELAND'. THEY MIGHT HAVE SOLD IT A FEW MONTHS AGO(I THINK IT WAS UP FOR SALE).
 
IF YOU THINK IT MIGHT BE THAT FAMILY I CAN GET MORE INFO. (LORD CROFTON REMARRIED AND HAS AT LEAST ONE STEP CHILD)

hi
here is some information you might be interested in :)

town asylum:ST. COLUMBAS/COLUMBUS  used to be a very scary looking place now it is a hotel owned be a well known hotel chain (still looks a bit scary!!). more recently built hospital (20-30yrs) same name near by.

i am not too sure about this one:   NAZERATH NOME it always held a bit of mystery for kids as for what is was used for. STILL IN USE

outside the town: CLOONAMAHON ( A MIXTURE OF THE ABOVE TWO ). STILL IN USE.

I COULD FIND OUT A BIT MORE IF YOU NEED IT. LET ME KNOW.
