The Healy Room
This room originally served as a dressing room or closet attached to the adjoining State Bedroom. It was used as a small sitting room and later became Major Edward Conollys bedroom in the mid twentieth century as it was one of the few rooms that could be kept warm in winter. It is now known as the Healy room after the pictures of the Castletown horses by the Irish artist Robert Healy (d.1771). Today photographic reproductions hang in the place of the original drawings. The original grisaille drawings date from c. 1768. and feature the Castletown racehorses, huntsmen and portraits of both Thomas and Louisa Conolly with their horses and surveying their demesne.
