Castlewellan Forest Park

Council’s plans to restore the key heritage features of Castlewellan Forest Park to help maximise its tourism potential have taken a huge leap forward.  Works have included the restoration and construction of the cold frames and propagation house; gardeners shed retaining original beamwork and flooring which will provide office accommodation and volunteer space; an extension to the stove conservatory, in keeping with the historic nature of the yard, to provide interpretation of the site along with a kitchen and toilet facilities; and a platform lift to provide access from the garden to the terrace.
