What is Coole Park?

George Moore visited Coole Park during his founding involvement in the Irish Literary Theatre (seed of today’s Abbey Theatre) and Dublin Municipal Art Gallery (seed of today’s Hugh Lane Gallery).

I have not found letters that date his visit(s) there. Two photographs of him at Coole are extant.
