In 1660, Sir Charles Coote was appointed by King Charles II as the first earl of Mountrath. On the death of his wife Mary, daughter of Sir Francis Rushe, he built the original Rush Hall in her memory, a magnificent mansion between Borris-in Ossary and Castletown which remained the family seat until it was destroyed in 1790
