In 1717, Charles Cobbe (1686-1765) came to Ireland as private secretary and chaplain to his kinsman Charles Paulet, the secondDuke of Boltonand Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. He was appointed Bishop of Killala in 1720 and his career progressed with successive bishoprics until he was enthroned as Archbishop of Dublinin 1743.</span></span><br />&nbsp;</p><div style='background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255); border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; color:rgb(74, 74, 74); font-family:&quot;Avenir Next&quot;, Avenir, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size:16px; font-style:normal; font-variant-caps:normal; font-variant-ligatures:normal; font-weight:400; letter-spacing:normal; line-height:1.5; margin-bottom:2rem; text-align:start; text-decoration-color:initial; text-decoration-style:initial; text-indent:0px; text-transform:none; word-spacing:0px;'><p style='border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; color:rgb(33, 37, 41); font-family:proxima-nova, sans-serif; font-size:1.1rem !important; line-height:1.6; margin:0px 0px 1rem;'><span style='font-family:inherit;'><span style='border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; line-height:1.5;'>Cobbe began purchasing lands on the Donabate peninsula in 1736, and commissioned the celebrated architect James Gibbsin 1744 to design a plan for the rebuilding of Newbridge House. Work began in 1747 and Newbridge is Gibbs’s only executed work in Ireland.</span></span></p><p style='border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; color:rgb(33, 37, 41); font-family:proxima-nova, sans-serif; font-size:1.1rem !important; line-height:1.6; margin:0px 0px 1rem;'><span style='font-family:inherit;'><span style='border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; line-height:1.5;'>The Archbishop gave the near-finished building to his only surviving son, Thomas (1733-1814) in 1755, on the latter’s marriage to Lady Elizabeth (Betty) Beresford, youngest daughter of the 1</span></span><span style='font-family:inherit; font-size:0.75em;'><span style='border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; line-height:1.5;'>st</span></span><span style='font-family:inherit;'><span style='border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; line-height:1.5;'>Earl of Tyrone. By extending the house, decorating it with ornamental stucco, collecting pictures, porcelain and commissioning furniture from Irish cabinetmakers, Thomas and Lady Betty left a significant mark on Newbridge which is still evident today. Their son, Charles Cobbe (1756-1798), married Anne Power Trench of Garbally, Co. Galway in 1778 but also ran up considerable debts. These eventually resulted in Thomas selling some estates in Louth and their large townhouse in Palace Row. Charles predeceased his father.</span></span></p><p style='border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; color:rgb(33, 37, 41); font-family:proxima-nova, sans-serif; font-size:1.1rem !important; line-height:1.6; margin:0px 0px 1rem;'><span style='font-family:inherit;'><span style='border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; line-height:1.5;'>In 1810, Thomas gifted Newbridge to his eldest grandson, Charles Cobbe (1781-1857), who, as well as raising his own five children here, provided a centre of home life for the numerous children of his brothers. The family injected new vigour into life at Newbridge, and was concerned with the welfare and the living conditions of their tenants.

Charles occupied Newbridge for 47 years and on his death, it passed to his son, also named Charles (1811-1886), from whom it passed to the latter’s nephew who came of age in 1905.</span></span></p><p style='background-attachment:initial; background-clip:initial; background-image:initial; background-origin:initial; background-position:initial; background-repeat:initial; background-size:initial; border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; color:rgb(33, 37, 41); font-family:proxima-nova, sans-serif; font-size:1.1rem !important; line-height:1.6; margin:0cm 0px 1rem;'><span style='font-family:inherit; font-size:12pt;'><span style='border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; line-height:1.5;'>In that year Thomas Maberly Cobbe married Eleanor Colville Frankland, the elegant daughter of an Anglo-American heiress and descendant of one of the Founding Fathers of the United States, John Jay.

As a result of this agreement, the interiors of Newbridge House are remarkably complete and amongst the best preserved in Ireland.</span></span></p><p style='border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; color:rgb(33, 37, 41); font-family:proxima-nova, sans-serif; font-size:1.1rem !important; line-height:1.6; margin:0px 0px 1rem;'>&nbsp;</p><div style='border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; font-family:inherit; line-height:1.5;'><div style='border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; font-family:inherit; line-height:1.5;'><span style='color:rgb(33,37,41); font-family:inherit; font-size:12pt;'><span style='border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; line-height:1.5;'>For latest information look up </span></span><span style='color:rgb(33,37,41); font-family:inherit; font-size:16px;'><span style='border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; line-height:1.5;'><strong>https://newbridgehouseandfarm.com/</strong></span></span></div></div></div>
