Castle Ward perches on the southern shores of Strangford Lough in County Down. Built in the 1760s by Bernard Ward and his wife Lady Anne Ward, the house is famous for its dual architecture and one of Ireland's biggest ornamental canals.

Of the extensive art collection, some paintings are in need of off-site restoration, while the frosty winter weather demands special care for the garden antiquities, including mythological statues shipped from Florence.
