Fading Away…Mayfield House & The First Planned Town in Ireland August 23, 2024 Admin Irish History </p> <h2>Fading Away…Mayfield House & The First Planned Town in Ireland</h2> <p> Portlaw is a historic settlement in Co.Waterford, Ireland. It was the first planned town in the country and at one time it even had its own currency! Mayfield House dates from the 18th century and stands in ruin next to an abandoned factory (tannery). In the 19th century, it underwent alterations and became a more Italianate looking structure. Hopefully this beautiful house can be restored in the future…<br /> Credit to : Historic Ireland </p> <p> Please support our Sponsors here --
