Tandragee Castle

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tandragee Castle, Tandragee, County Armagh, Northern Ireland was built in 1837 by George Montagu, 6th Duke of Manchester as the family's Irish home.

Prior to the Irish Rebellion of 1641, when the original building was burned down,[1] the Castle and estate at Tandragee were held by the O'Hanlon Sept.

Today the Castle houses offices for the Tayto potato crisp factory and the park's demesne incorporates a golf course.[2]
