Description

Sizeable former demesne for late 18th century/early 19th century house on high ground with fine vistas. Formerly heavily wooded, with a wet central area made into a lake, subsequently not kept up. Very fine approach carriage drive through the demesne from Ardee lodge (gone) in the south. House, tree cover, productive garden and ornamental gardens gone. Fine outbuildings (original) surrounded by woodland survive, otherwise intensively farmed.
