Mystery House


A reader has sent me these pictures of a house somewhere in Northern Ireland.

It was used for a period by United States forces during the 2nd World War.


Can anybody recognize it?

Known locally as "The Farm" along the Culmore Road in Londonderry. Kingsfort Park development was built in its grounds.

Very little is known about this house.
