Kiltalown House means ”Church of the Elms” and it is a suitable name for this ancient townland. The old church existed until the 17th Century. In 1800 John Carpenter, the then owner of the land, demolished it completely and on the old foundations built the house. Kiltalown House is an elegant country house situated on the Blessington Road in the townland of Jobstown. Kiltalown has some fine features, particularly the windows, portico and doorway. The portico has a pair of Doric columns and full entablature, and the doorway has a carved timber surround with fanlight. Kilatalown has a hipped slate roof and extensions and barns / outbuildings at the side – to the rear of the house. It is in use today as an holistic health centre In a field at the back of the house is a local megalithic stone called the witches stone it was connected to the pagan past here before the house or church ever existed
