Killin Park House, near Dundalk, Co Louth, stands proud on the edge of an ancient elevated site that’s been inhabited since megalithic times. For centuries, this was a vantage point in defence of invaders. Evidence of its antiquity: two passage tombs, one said to be of a giant, were sadly lost during quarrying in the early 1800s.
