History & Location History The lands at Camolin were acquired by the Church of Ireland about 1830 and The Rectory was built shortly after. In 1947 when no longer required by the church it was sold to the Bolger family. It was subsequently acquired by Sir John Doyle, whose grandfather founded the Royal Irish Fusiliers. His daughter sold the property to the current vendors in 1988 who subsequently upgraded and improved the entire holding.
