The Dark Hedges

James Stuart build Gracehill house in c. 1775. His family planted an avenue of over 150 beech trees along the entrance to the Georgian Estate. The trees formed a mesmerizing tunnel that became Dark Hedges. Dark Hedges became a big tourist attraction when it was used as a filming location in the popular TV series Game of Thrones. I've never seen Game of Thrones but Lara is a fan. Dark Hedges is one of the most photographed locations in Ireland.
