Dunmoyle Lodge was part of an upland demesne near Sixmilecross in County Tyrone. The site now a forest. The house of 1880s with its notable conservatory were demolished in 1965. The contents of the house were sold by auction over three days.
Dunmoyle Lodge was blown up by the Army as it was in a dangerous condition and the cellar had filled with water.
The house had a large conservatory and walled garden and at least two deep wells; and a real oddity was a monkey puzzle tree to the side of the main house with a beautiful copper beech tree facing the front door.
The Dunmoyle estate became associated with the Jeffcock family during the Victorian era, though was acquired - through marriage by the Sir John Ross.
