The defenders numbered 10 in all and were armed with long-barrelled fowling pieces. Captain Aston drew his men up in front of the Hall and demanded admission in the name of the King. Alexander Redmond retorted that Aston was welcome to come in providing that he left his soldiers and weapons outside. A lengthy gun battle ensued. Aston discovered that his cannon were too small to make much impression on the main door.
To add to his troubles, about half his men abandoned him to pillage the countryside. As the fight dragged on a thick sea-mist descended on the Hook Peninsula. Hearing of the attack they marched rapidly to the aid of the defenders and surprised the attackers under cover of the fog. About 30 of the English escaped to their boats and back to the fort. Captain Aston himself was one of those killed. Several of the English prisoners were hanged the following day on Thomas Roche's orders, probably at Ballyhack.
Dispossession and change of ownership[ edit ] The official Redmond family pedigree registered in the Ulster Office, Dublin Castle alleges that Alexander Redmond had to defend the Hall one or even two more times against soldiers of Oliver Cromwell in the autumn of during the Cromwellian conquest of Ireland. There is a tradition that the defenders used sacks of wool to block up breaches in the walls created by enemy cannon. These woolsacks and a representation of the Hall can be seen in the coat of arms issued to one of their members in It is alleged that Alexander Redmond received favourable terms from Cromwell and died in the Hall in or after which his surviving family were evicted, allowed only to retain a third of their original estates in County Wexford.
Nicholas Loftus acquired the Manor of Fethard-on-Sea in and Fethard Castle became the family residence, that was afterwards occupied by the Redmond family after they were evicted from The Hall which is now Loftus Hall.
After the end of Cromwell's campaign, Nicholas Loftus was given extensive lands in the south of County Wexford and purchased the Hall from 'several Adventurers and soldiers', but it was only in when his son Henry moved to the Hall from Dungulph that it became the principal residence of the Loftus family. To establish the new name of his property he had the following inscription inscribed in stone on the entrance piers at Portersgate: 'Henry Loftus of Loftus Hall Esq.
Nonetheless, the old name remained in use till the end of the century. In Henry Loftus carried out extensive repairs to the Hall, which presumably needed repairing after the turbulent events of the previous decades. The Loftus family rose in the peerage over the following centuries.
It was his descendant, the 4th Marquess, who between and , refurbished the old Hall, and used the existing structure, resulting in the present house. The Redmond family had disputed the claim of the Loftus family in court but without success.
In they were compensated with lands in the Barony of Ballaghkeene in the north of County Wexford. Some of their descendants joined the movement of the Wild Geese and served in a number of foreign armies, most notably that of France. Others were involved in banking and politics, and became a prominent local political dynasty in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries in support of the Irish Party of Isaac Butt and Charles Stuart Parnell. The most famous of these was John Redmond who led the party till his death in Later developments[ edit ] Between and , The Most Honourable John Henry Wellington Graham Loftus, 4th Marquess of Ely , under the guidance of his mother Lady Jane Hope Vere Loftus Lady in Waiting to Queen Victoria , undertook an extensive rebuilding of the entire mansion, adding many of the famous elements such as the grand staircase, mosaic tiled floor, elaborate parquet flooring and technical elements which had not been seen in houses in Ireland at the time, such as flushing toilets and blown air heating.
The extensive works were believed to have been undertaken to facilitate a visit from the Queen, but this didn't happen and the family never got to fully enjoy the house, with the 4th Marquess dying very young without issue and leaving the estate, in a poor financial state, to his cousin who eventually elected to place it on the market, classed as a three-storey non-basement mansion, nine bays to the front with a balustraded parapet.

Ghost stories[ edit ] Charles Tottenham became Lord of the manor having to adopt the Loftus name to inherit lands and title as per instructions of Nicolas Loftus by marrying the Honourable Anne Loftus, daughter of the first Viscount Loftus.
They had six children, four boys and two girls — Elizabeth and Anne. However, his wife became ill and died while the girls were still young. During a storm, a ship unexpectedly arrived at the Hook Peninsula , where the mansion was located. A young man was welcomed into the mansion. Anne and the young man became very close. One night, the family and mysterious man were in the Game Room playing cards. In the game each player received three cards, apart from Anne who was only dealt two by the mystery man.
A butler serving the Tottenham family at the table was just about to question the man when Anne bent down to pick up another card from the floor, which she must have dropped. It is said that when Anne bent down to pick up the card, she looked beneath the table and saw that the mysterious man had a cloven foot.
Soon Anne became mentally ill, and it is believed that the family was ashamed of Anne and locked her away in her favourite room - where she would be happy, yet out of everyone's view - which was known as the Tapestry Room. She refused food and drink, and sat with her knees under her chin, looking out the Tapestry Room window and across the sea to where Dunmore East is today, waiting for her mysterious stranger to return, until she died in the Tapestry Room in It is said that when she died, they could not straighten her body, as her muscles had seized, and she was buried in the same sitting position in which she had died.
This film details the story, dramatising certain parts, such as the card game, with actors. The documentary was well received, with Whelan credited as a figure of authority on the history of Loftus Hall. It also features a full supporting cast of all the characters from the legend, with Liam Murphy as Loftus and Frank Coughlan as Charles Tottenham.
