Derrymore House, 18th-century thatched cottage in County Armagh, Northern Ireland
Derrymore House stands within 100 acres of parkland and woodland, featuring a traditional thatched roof made from Shannon reeds and winding paths through grassy pastures.
The Treaty Room inside this residence holds significance as the location where discussions for the 1800 Act of Union between Great Britain and Ireland took place.
The estate contains the Bessbrook Friends' Meeting House and maintains connections with the development of the neighboring Bessbrook village, initiated by John Grubb Richardson.
The main car park sits at the bottom of the estate opposite the Walled Garden, with designated visitor parking and a special field for dogs near the entrance.
During World War II, the grounds transformed into a US Army Quartermaster Depot, leaving traces of military earthworks visible throughout the estate.
