Designed Landscapes
Castlehacket in County Galway contains what is recorded as a designed landscape feature, a category that covers the deliberate shaping of grounds around a country house or estate: terracing, ornamental water, tree planting, walled enclosures, and the careful arrangement of views.
That such a feature exists here at all is a reminder that estate landscaping was not confined to the great demesnes of Leinster or the grand houses of the Pale, but spread quietly into the fields and townlands of Connacht as well.
