The thatched house in which Edmund was born on 1 June 1762, is almost 300 years old.

The six roomed house consists of a kitchen, parlour, breakfast room and three bedrooms.

Of particular interest is the bedroom in which Edmund Rice was born.

Come and see how a prosperous farmer's family lived in Edmund Rice's time. Also see the chapel, Icon room and Visitor's Centre.








Westcourt is open throughout the year.
