Muckross Estate

Posted by Richard Cleaver (Toronto, Canada) on 18 March 2007 in Architecture.

Muckross House is a magnificent Victorian mansion completed in 1843 for Henry Arthur Herbert. It is located near Killarney in Ireland and it is the last in a series of large houses constructed by the Herbert family on their lands at Muckross. The location of the House is spectacular, close to the eastern shore of Muckross Lake and set beneath the impressive backdrop of Torc and Mangerton Mountains. When I toured the estate area, I had to make do with midday sun. This is a side shot of Muckross house.
