More about this scene
Here we see a view of the splendid Court House. Begun in 1772 as a market house, it seems to be a centrepiece for the vast County Down estate. The big house (the castle) was not yet begun, and it came without a long drive. The two are within sight of each other and complete the picture. There are fine houses loooking on to take their share. The view down the hill can bring in the hills beyond Belfast Lough; it could once have played a part in communications to bring aid as required.
