Ballytrent House — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Walled garden, built 1835-6, on a circular plan with part creeper- or ivy-covered boundary wall to perimeter having overgrown rounded coping centred on red brick Running bond piers supporting timber boarded double gates. Set in landscaped grounds shared with Ballytrent House.

A walled garden not only contributing positively to the group and setting values of the Ballytrent House estate, but also illustrating the continued development or "improvement" of the estate in the early nineteenth century by repurposing 'an extensive rath or earth-work…laid out in walks and rich plantations and appropriated to pleasure-grounds [and] called the Mulgrave Rath having acquired this designation when the Marquis of Normandy [Constantine Henry Phipps (1797-1863)], then Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland, paid a visit to its distinguished owner [John Hyacinth Talbot (1794-1868)]' (Lacy 1863, 442-3).
