Art, furniture and collectibles will come under the hammer at Dolan’s house contents auction on the premises at Costelloe Lodge, Costelloe, Connemara on Bank Holiday Monday May 6 at noon. A total of 449 lots will be offered. Built as a fishing lodge in the 19th century it famously became the home of J. Bruce Ismay, chairman of the White Star Line. A survivor of the Titanic disaster and villified on both sides of the Atlantic Ismay retired and lived here in the 1920’s and ’30’s. He died in 1937. Agnes and Jack Toohey bought the Lodge in the 1980’s. She was a dress designer and sportstwoman who fenced for Ireland and designed Olympic uniforms for successive Irish teams.
