Summary

Description
English: Front view of Nagirroc, the summer residence of James Corrigan, in 1917.

It was located in Wickliffe, Ohio, U.S., on the north side of what was then Pine Ridge Road (the modern address is 30601 Ridge Road). It consisted of 56 acres (23 ha) purchased by Ida Belle Corrigan in April 1891. James Corrigan added another 12.78 acres (5.17 ha) to the site in May 1904. He named it "Nagirroc" ("Corrigan" backwards).

Corrigan died in 1908, and the house and land was inherited by his son, James W. Corrigan. The son enlarged the estate by an additional 91 acres (37 ha) south of Ridge Road in May 1916. It doubled in size between 1916 and 1924 to 425 acres (172 ha).

Between 1908 and 1924, the home James Corrigan occupied burned down. James W. Corrigan had a new house built about 300 feet (91 m) to the northwest, a bit further away from Ridge Road.

A syndicate of investors purchased the estate in January 1924, and it became the home of the Cedarhurst Golf Club. The house was converted into a clubhouse and substantial additions made. The clubhouse burned down in the autumn of 1925, and the golf club built a new concrete clubhouse on the site of James Corrigan's old home.

In March 1926, 200 acres (81 ha) of the estate were sold and became the Cedarhurst Club Colony luxury housing development.

Cedarhurst became the Pine Ridge Golf Club, and in March 1992 the course was sold to Lake Metroparks, which still operates it as a public golf course as of 2025.
