<p>Since 1179/1180, the St Lawrence family were the feudal lords of Howth. The original family castle, a timber structure, was sited on the edge of Howth village, on Tower Hill, overlooking Balscadden Bay. The wooden structure was moved to the current site around 1235, while the first stone castle was commenced in the following century, and the oldest part of the current building dates from the 1450s. Further major works were performed by several of the Lords of Howth.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="21st_century">21st century</h3></div>

<p>In 1892 Rosa Mulholland referred to the grounds thus:
"Back on the lower land you must visit the ancient demesne of the Earl of Howth, where a quaint old castle stands in a prim garden with swan-inhabited pond, and plashing fountain, encircled by dark beautiful woods full of lofty cathedral-like aisles, moss carpeted, and echoing with the cawing of rooks."(Mulholland 1892: 35)
</p><p>The grounds near the castle are noted for the wild rhododendron gardens, which are open to the public in summer, and some of the oldest beech hedges in Ireland, planted in 1710. At certain times, such as summer 2016, guided tours of the castle could be booked at weekends. As late as the mid-20th century, there was a rock garden near the Church of Ireland parish church, a "sundial garden" near the main entrance gate, an orchard and a moat and the site of a well or spring in front of the castle; all of these features later fell into disuse. A small sunken garden lay beside the castle's chapel wing, and a formal garden, of which parts remain, behind it, with a walk cutting through to the Swan Pond, beside which was a fern garden.
</p><p>The Bloody Stream ran in front of the castle, another stream used to pass directly by, and was later captured by castle drainage, and a third was connected to the Swan Pond. One of the streams in Sutton also comes from within the estate.
</p><p>The more remote parts of the estate are treated as more or less public land, with walking trails, and are substantially subject to a Special Amenity Area Order.
</p><p>In the 20th century, the 17th classical landscape was substantially modified to make the Deer Park golf courses, which had an associated hotel, the Deer Park Hotel, for many years.
</p><p>The "Kitchen in the Castle Cookery School" was opened by two members of the family, based in the restored Georgian kitchens of Howth Castle.
</p><p>The volunteer-operated <a href="National_Transport_Museum_of_Ireland" title="National Transport Museum of Ireland">National Transport Museum of Ireland</a> is located in the grounds of the castle. It features lorries, trucks, fire engines and tractors. Also exhibited is the restored <a href="Hill_of_Howth_Tramway" title="Hill of Howth Tramway">Hill of Howth No.9 Tram</a>.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Howth_Park_Racecourse_(1829_-_1842)">Howth Park Racecourse (1829 - 1842)</h3></div>
<p>In 1829 a racecourse was established in the castle grounds by <a href="Thomas_St_Lawrence%2C_3rd_Earl_of_Howth" title="Thomas St Lawrence, 3rd Earl of Howth">Thomas St Lawrence, 3rd Earl of Howth</a> who had a particular passion for horses.<sup id="cite_ref-greyhoundderby_15-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-greyhoundderby-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The course was known as <i>Howth Park Racecourse</i> and ran from the backgate lodge of the castle on <a href="Carrickbrack_Road" title="Carrickbrack Road">Carrickbrack Road</a> down to the corner of the grounds of Seafield House (now Santa Sabina school) and North broadly along the route of Offington before circling <a href="Corr_Castle" title="Corr Castle">Corr Castle</a> and returning up along the Howth Road.
</p><p>The races were attended by all the leading owners, trainers and jockeys of the day with the race-card paying testament to the importance of the occasion.
