Robert McCorkell
Key holder of hospital at Ballyrattan. It is believed that the
hospital was built as a fever hospital for people bringing in
infectious diseases by boat. It may have been used as a navy
hospital during World War II, and then taken over by Curran's
Shirt Factory. Photograph taken around 1890
