History
Built in 1788 by William Worth Newenham,[1] Coolmore House is on the site of an older building from the late 1600s. This site has been the ancestral home of the Newenham family since that time.[2] The property was still owned by the Newenham family as of 2014.[3][4][5]
As of 2025[update], the house is in a derelict state.
