Favour Royal, Historical estate in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland.

The Favour Royal estate spans 740 acres of farmland, featuring an ornamental lake and an 18th-century walled garden near the Irish border.

Originally named Portclare, King James I granted the estate to Sir Thomas Ridgeway in 1613 during the plantation of Ulster period.

The Tudor revival mansion, constructed in 1825 by architect John Hargrave, reflects the architectural preferences of Northern Irish landed gentry.

The estate currently stands in a derelict state, with previous plans for conversion into a hotel and golf course remaining unrealized.

The estate grounds contain St Mary's Portclare, a private chapel commissioned specifically for the property and consecrated in 1835.
