Tudenham Park House

Tudenham Park House, originally known as Rochfort House, is a captivating 18th-century Palladian limestone country house located in County Westmeath, Ireland. Nestled near the scenic Lough Ennell and Belvedere House and Gardens, this historic site is steeped in intriguing stories, including a familial rivalry that led to the construction of The Jealous Wall. Built between 1717 and 1742 for George Rochfort, the house later served as a hospital during both World Wars. Although it suffered a devastating fire in 1958, the remaining structure, now enveloped in lush vegetation, offers a glimpse into its storied past. The property has changed hands several times, with recent efforts aimed at conservation, making it a point of interest for tourists and researchers alike.
