An impressive listed mansion has gone on the market in Newtown Cunningham.

Bogey House is a home fit for a Duke. This seven-bed former hunting lodge was built on the Abercorn Estates C.1730. It served as a country house for the Duke of Abercorn and was the centrepiece of a large hunting estate which contained a walled garden, many acres of farm and woodland and various buildings associated with the estate, demonstrating the wealth of the family.
