Description

Possible site of Scanlan O'Neill's Castle (townland named after him). Was Moone (of Monasterboice) land in 17th century. Reference to Deer Park in vicinity. Modest demesne; retains much of original layout. Small landscape park on setting for former pre 1863 house with additional landscaping for mid-Victorian house and later for hotel. Parkland to southwest now golf course; original shelter belt trees but much modern planting for golf course. Golf course extends into former farm land. Few fine mature trees - was never a tree-rich site.
