Howth Castle Rhododendron Gardens
West of St Mary's Church above Howth harbor is the fifth century Howth Castle, a battlemented stronghold of irregular plan, much restored. In the lovely park (open throughout the year) is an 18th C. French-style garden with 30ft/9m high beech hedges and a profusion of rhododendrons. Nearby are a fine chambered tomb and a ruined 16th C. tower house.
