In days of old, the grandiose building once housed an influential family who played a key role in establishing many of Galway’s renowned organisations. Unfortunately, the success at Tyrone was not to last as the house later came to a bleak end one faithful day in the 1920s. Since then, it has been reduced to little more than a gaunt ruin containing nothing more than faint whispers of a ghostly haunting.
