The Argory Dungannon, County Armagh HOGAsrmC8FE5 Grounds 1j This handsome 1820s house is unchanged since 1900. The cluttered interiors evoke the Bond family’s Edwardian taste and interests, and include a barrel organ that is played occasionally for musical house tours. The beautiful estate offers a wonderful Rose Garden with sundial, as well as woodland and riverside walks for all ages. There are also amazing displays of snowdrops and spring flowers.
