Description

La maison à deux niveaux, de style néoclassique, a retrouvé l'aspect qu'elle avait au temps de Charles Parnell, leader nationaliste qui l'utilisa en différentes occasions de sa vie publique. La salle à manger présente une ornementation en pierre de Coade. Une présentation vidéo relate la vie de Parnell, son rôle dans la politique irlandaise au 19e s. Le parc forestier couvre une pente escarpée, orientée à l'Est vers l'autre côté de la rivière d'Avonmore. This two-storey neo-Classical-style house now looks as it would have done during the time of Charles Parnell, the Nationalist leader who used it for public occasions. The dining room has been decorated in Coade stone, while a video presentation tells the story of Parnell and his role in 19C Irish politics. The Forest Park covers a steep slope, which faces east towards the opposite bank of the River Avonmore.
