Telling tales. If walls could talk, most houses could probably
write the script to an elaborate soap opera. Eneclann offers
a house history research service for buildings in Ireland.
Murderous plots, houses changing hands to settle gambling
debts and famous artists as former residents are just some
of its discoveries. It also found that somebody's conservatory
was designed by Turner, renowned for the glasshouses in the
National Botanic Gardens. Apart from being interesting in
itself, the research can be used to support applications for
planning for listed buildings, local authority maintenance
grants and tax relief on historic buildings. If you want to
buy a House History as a birthday or wedding gift, order it
at least 10 weeks in advance. From €450 for a small house
to €1,800 for a big country house. Eneclann, 01-6710338.
