Downhill Desmesne

Downhill Desmesne
This was the estate house of Frederick Hervey, 4th Earl of Bristol and Church of Ireland Lord Bishop of Londonderry. The estate is now managed by the National Trust and the estate house is a ruin, but still worth visiting. The estate also has on it a number of other buildings, a walled garden and the Mussenden temple, a library on the cliffs overlooking the sea (I've posted some photos of it earlier).

It must have been a very impressive building in its time, Ron. Any idea what happened to it? A great series.

Built at the end of the 18th century, it was partially destroyed by fire in 1851 but was rebuilt in the 1870s. It was used to billet servicemen during the second world war and fell into disrepair thereafter. The National Trust took over the property in 1980.
