Tullynally Castle

Tullynally Castle, also known as Pakenham Hall, is a country house situated some 2 km from Castlepollard on the Coole village road in County Westmeath, Ireland.

The Gothic-style building has over 120 rooms and has been home to the Pakenham family (now the Earls of Longford) for over 350 years.

In 1665 Henry Pakenham, a captain in the Parliamentary Dragoons, was granted land in lieu of pay arrears that included Tullynally.

The 2nd Earl remodelled the 17th-century house in the Gothic Revival style in the early nineteenth-century, adding towers and a moat.

[2] The senior British Army commander, General Sir Edward Pakenham, GCB, was born and brought up in the house.
