Moore Hall, Country house in County Mayo, Ireland
The three-story residence contains 35 rooms with a symmetrical design, positioned on Muckloon Hill overlooking the waters of Lough Carra lake.
Built between 1792 and 1796 by wine merchant George Moore, the house remained inhabited until 1910 before its destruction during the Irish Civil War in 1923.
The estate attracted numerous writers of the Irish Literary Revival, serving as a meeting point for authors including William Butler Yeats and Lady Gregory.
The surrounding forest park spans 80 acres and features walking paths where visitors can observe diverse plant species including wild orchids throughout the grounds.
During the Great Famine of 1846, owner George Henry Moore used his horse racing winnings to provide food for all tenants on the estate.
