Russborough House 
From Glendalough Forest Park the R756 runs down to Hollywood. 4mi/6km north of Hollywood on the N81, past the reservoir, stands Russborough House, a Palladian mansion by Richard Cassels and Francis Bindon (1740-50), now occupied by the Beit family. The main house, with a flight of steps up to the entrance, is linked by colonnades to two substantial wings.
