Introduction
A 17th-century demesne, the house having been demolished in 1870. Once a noted garden. In the late 17th century this was the site of the first hothouse in Ireland to house a collection of plants from Jamaica. There are traces of canals and ponds. A new lime avenue denotes the former axial planting.
