Introduction
Crom is a heavily-wooded lough shore and island demesne. The 17th-century ruinous bawn house with an adjacent pair of ancient yew trees and elements of the formal garden remain. Elsewhere landscaping by W.S. Gilpin of 1838 is associated with the contemporary house. There are many estate buildings.
