Purchase of Fee Farm Grants of houses on Walkin Street

Deeds, correspondence and related legal documents concerning negotiations for the purchase of premises on Walkin Street (later Friary Street) by the Capuchin Order. The principal vendor and fee farm grant holder was the Rev. Andrew Craig Robinson (Church of Ireland Rector of Ballymoney, County Cork). Some of Robinson’s relations also had interests in the properties. The file relates primarily to the protracted negotiations for the purchase, and to efforts to trace title to the properties (Robinson had inherited the fee farm grant of rents accruing from the premises through his mother, Margaret Anne, a daughter of Captain James Montgomery Blair). Reference is also made to various mortgages on the properties and to the original fee farm grant of 1705 made by James Butler, 2nd Duke of Ormonde. The Capuchins eventually secured the property in 1919 for £650 (See CA KK/2/1/1/3/13). The final conveyance contained a covenant by the vendor to indemnify the property transferred against all rents accruing out of any other premises which he continued to hold on Walkin Street.
