About Hermitage

Hermitage is one of 43 buildings in Castleconnell the National Inventory rates Regional. Its record dates Hermitage to 1790–1810. One other place on the record stands within 400 m.

These ranges of outbuildings, which were formerly part of the Hermitage demesne, retain much of their original massing and constitute a notable example of planned farm buildings in Ireland. Both ranges, which comprise elegantly proportioned blocks on a rectangular plan attest to high quality design and execution.

Questions about Hermitage

Is Hermitage on the National Inventory?

Yes: rated Regional (record 21900603).

Can you visit Hermitage?

It can be seen from the street; whether you can go inside depends on its owner.

When was Hermitage built?

Its National Inventory record dates it to 1790–1810.

Is Hermitage protected?

Being on the National Inventory or the Sites and Monuments Record is a record, not protection by itself: buildings are protected by their council’s Record of Protected Structures, which each council keeps and no national open list gathers, so this page can’t say which are on it.
