Castlemore
House.
Built c.1874. Castlemore estate belonged to the Eustace family, later
Eustace-Duckett. A copy of this photo (*Hardymount in
Castlemore) from about 1950 was given by one of the daughters to my
friend Kathleen Hosey, and it shows the group getting ready for the hunt.
The Eustace-Ducketts were renowned Hunt Masters and specially bred a hunting
dog, the Castlemore Labrador Retriever, which is still highly sought after
today.
