Richhill Castle

[1] The Legacorry estate was acquired in 1610 by Francis Sacherevall, a planter from Leicestershire, who constructed a house on the 1000-acre site.

It was inherited by Edward's son William, twice MP for Co. Armagh (1692–95 and 1715–27) and High Sheriff in 1690, who died without an heir in 1727.

He commissioned ornate gates and railings eighteen to twenty feet high topped with the Richardson family's coat of arms from the Thornberry Brothers of Armagh.

Since that time there have been various owners, including Major Robert Gordon Berry, the Northern Ireland Education Authority and Sam Hewitt.

[1] Sam Hewitt sold it in 1959 to the Lyttle family, the present owners, who have restored much of the house and garden.
