[[Westport House]] in County Mayo, Ireland, was the seat of the Browne dynasty, [[Marquess of Sligo|Marquesses of Sligo]], direct descendants of Grace O'Malley. The current house was built close to the site of Cahernamart ({{lang|ga|Cathair na Mart}} – "fort of the beef market"), an Ó Máille fort. The original house was built by Colonel John Browne, a Jacobite, who was at the [[Siege of Limerick (1691)]], and his wife Maude Bourke. Maude Bourke was O'Malley's great-great-granddaughter.
