Humewood Castle

Humewood Castle is a large 19th-century Gothic-fantasy granite mansion near Kiltegan, County Wicklow, built for the Hume family and completed in 1870. The three-storey house is dominated by a tall round turret at one end and a more angular, battlemented tower at the other, and contains formal reception rooms, service rooms and twelve bedrooms. It stands within extensive parkland and remained an intact, visitable country house as of 2024.

The shape it held in its prime.

Three-storey granite Gothic-fantasy mansion with an asymmetrical silhouette dominated by a tall round turret with conical roof at one end and a more angular, crenellated tower at the other. The long main block displays rows of rectangular mullioned windows, bay windows, multiple gabled dormers, steep slate roofs and numerous tall chimneys. A large arched entrance set into the right-hand elevation opens from stone steps onto a raised terrace; the house sits within rolling parkland.
