Hi all,

If anyone online knows the answer to this their help is much appreciated.

I am trying to find out where on the grounds of Markree was the Observatory (i.e. in relation to the current castle, now a hotel, there). Someone I know is there over the next two nights and would like to get some pictures of the observatory ruins. I know it's a little away from the Castle but not sure what part.

Many thanks for looking!

John

I got married there, but that was long before I was into Astronomy, so I didn't even know there was an observatory.

Good restaurant in the castle, though....
