Description:	South Dublin Village Walks - Palmerston Step 8. View of Palmerston House and Mills. High on the hill overlooking Palmerston FC Playing Fields, built in 1760, is “Palmerstown House”. A former country house, it was built by John Hely-Hutchinson, 7th Earl of Donoughmore. Palmerstown House is a fine relic of 19th Century nobility and lives on in its current role as the administrative centre of Stewart’s Hospital. A plaque to John Hely-Hutchinson’s memory can be seen in nearby St. Laurence’s Church in Chapelizod where he worshipped. Over the wall to your left are two imposing structures. One is a mustard mill; to the right, further away, is a former oil mill. The two mills are on private land.
