Avenues, known as walks, from Roscommon castle (RO039-043001-) were part of a designed landscape relating to the fortified house phase (RO039-043010-), and a map of 1736 shows mature trees established on that (RO039-043018-) leading from the castle to the town (Murphy and O'Conor 2008, 32). A second extended ENE (Wth c. 80m; L c. 2 km), and survives in fragments as linear fields (Wth c. 80m) defined by earthen banks and hedges with field drains, although most of it is occupied by private housing.
