History
Stable Lodge borders a quiet country road whose peaceful setting today belies its historic importance. Prior to the construction of the Mail Coach Road (the modern-day N71) circa 1815, this route formed part of the principal highway linking Clonakilty and Rosscarbery.
The property has a long association with the Cusack family, who held more than 91 acres in Maulycorcoran from Lord Freke during the late 18th century. Originally constructed as a single-storey thatched cottage, Stable Lodge is believed to date from the early 1800s and retains much of the charm and character associated with its period origins.
Historical records show the house was occupied by Thomas Cusack in 1849 under a long-standing lease from Lady Carbery. Ownership later passed from the Cusack family by 1885 to Richard Nagle and subsequently to Michael Driscoll, a local dairyman who was resident by 1901. It is believed that the Driscoll family added the first floor extension during the early twentieth century, creating the charming two-storey cottage seen today, and the family remained associated with the property into modern times.
