I love these videos but think you should pad them pit a bit to an out 5-8 minutes long if you could. Maybe about the families affect on the locality or something like that. Great work though 👍🏾
Sad to see a beautiful building like this go to ruin!
You forgot the country's biggest Celtic tiger Ghost estate on the same estate grounds
This is a historic building of style and good architectural interest. It has nothing to do with petty Irish hatred which should not be present today. Be proud of your country and all its history as in marriage for better for worse.
Agree. Love from irelans
A beautiful building, it has a gentle air about it. I hope it attracts the right person to lift up its spirits and back to happy times
Another gem lost and left abandoned
Built during the Irish famine.
I'd say there was no famine inside the walls of that estate
I was astonished to hear the year it was built! Although I don’t know why, things are as unequal today. But it is hard to fathom this was being built while thousands were literally starving.
It will be an IPAs wait and see.
IPAS housing? Would be kinda ironic for Plantation 2.0
Watching here in Co wexford interesting location and history
I’d wager the old place is haunted by the ghost of the original owner, who blew his head off!😮
Why is it not mentioned that the Glennon brothers own this property?
Them boys are clueless
They have it years and all they done with it is plant a field with trees
Who owns' it?
I hope some Billionaire falls in love with it, buys it and completely restores it.
But doesn’t ruin the historical architecture
@@ATLmodK That is what I meant. I could have been more specific. I meant restore it to its original state.
It would be me

Could and will hold approximately 500 migrants.
Token anti migrant comment ✅
@rorydonly illegal immigrants not legal ones.
Then why do 80 percent destroy their passport. Michael o Leary of Ryanair call them scammers. No passport no entry .
@@danhealy3261 you’re just showing your ignorance of the asylum application process 👍 educate yourself instead of quoting an airline owner.
"Jihadi B&B. How can we help you?".....
It's beautiful. I hope someone can take on its renovation. If I had the money, I'd be turning those stables into guest houses and renting out to events, weddings, etc. Some might find that a terrible idea, but that's what I'd do.
Why not turn the whole place into an air B&B?
@@theshamanarchist5441 Because, why just rent rooms when you can hold events. And, why should Air B&B get a cut? AB&B isn't big enough for what I'm thinking.
So sad! 😒
Allways think the government should jump in and restore these projects, at least in the name of preserving their history. And repurposing as required..
There would be no return on the money and the upkeep would be enormous. Unless a private investor bought it, it is not the government's responsibility as they are many of these once beautiful homes that can't be repurpised.
Which part of the budget should they divert the funds from? It's not easy to run a museum while so many children are in temporary accommodation.
It is the owners who should get to decide that not the government who are incapable of repairing pot holes in roads or dealing with hospital wards.
@carlosalot : I would have thought the Irish would hate the memory of English-style castles blighting their landscape!
@@scented-leafpelargonium3366they prefer ipas centers these days, much prettier
Im sure a Billionaire will buy it
🇺🇸
I stayed at a castle in Northern Island recently and the owner told me the annual maintenance and running costs and of the struggle of trying to generate sufficient income from it. I decided I didn’t want a castle.
All these old houses should be levelled remnants of rich landlords built off the misery and hardship of the native people
Leftists want all symbols of British oppression in Ireland to be torn down so that they can pretend that the Irish were never oppressed. They should be preserved as a reminder of what our forefathers suffered and bled to free themselves of.
Gommer les conséquences de l'histoire ne change pas l'histoire !
Tell us a bit more about this Lord Chief Justice.. The Thomas Langlois Lefroy - how many Irishmen did he hang ?
Oh , and - “” Tom decided that Lefroy would do what Newcomen had failed to do. He would pull down the rambling old house in the Carriglas demense and would replace it by a noble structure in the latest style. There were problems. Tenants had to be evicted to clear the ground for a lay out on a suitable scale. But Tom was generous and the process of eviction went relatively smoothly ! ! “”
As an Irish taxpayer I would not like to see a single cent of my money spent saving these structures. They are symbols of British colonialism, built often using money generated through slavery and exploitation. The 600 acre site would be much better utilised for local amenities and services, rather than whistle stop tours for Dublin tourists and overpriced coffee wagons!
Interesting how only some people's histories are worth preserving.
@@SherriDeNiroI concur with OP whilst i can appreciate its architecture these buildings fundamentally have always been the seats of power for the foreign scum who used and abused this country and her people.
Would you knock down the Colosseum or the Egyptian pyramids because they were built by slaves? It would be great to preserve all of the buildings like this in Ireland. They will generate an income for the descendants of the victims of British colonialism. They will not celebrate the empire but ensure we understand it.
British here, I don’t blame you. These places are physically beyond saving in any case. A more intact house with original interiors, possessions and archives included might be a different thing to potentially preserve though?
To let something like this fall (or worse still to burn it) is an insult to the craftspeople who made it. It would also destroy the history that you seem to love to cling too! As what happened here is the last century, hundreds of items of history - your Irish/British history - were destroyed by this type of radical ranting and would be a disrespect to previous generations. Getting “rid” of it would never dissolve your bitterness, resentment and anger. Those traits would be bred into you and as such require breeding out in order for future generations to move on.
It’s a remnant of British Colonial past and should be flattened imo.
The country house is the greatest statement of British art in the last 500 years. You have no idea what you are suggesting.
You can't erase Ireland's history , you should instead embrace beauty amidst the pain .
Thankfully no one cares about your opinion IMO, keep on trucking 😂
Pol Pot Year Zero thinking
@hayleys-w5q Bravo!
They should restore it. If the government reversed the Wyndham Act, abolished the state pension, inheritance tax, income tax and the right to vote for women and non-freeholders plus reintroduced the tithe system for the Church of Ireland the circumstances would be ideal.
😂
Take it over for the homeless.
Nope. Build more houses that is the only solution.
Yeah they could turn into a super duluxe refugee center?
Theres enough fake refugees in ireland now. @mrmc2465
Fill it full of lazy,druggie inbreads? (In the words of John McInroe)"You cannot be serious"?!!
Move the migrants in. 600,000 more coming your way, Ireland.
Ireland for the Irish
Deportation now!
600,000 on 600 acres, could work alright
@@Ingwe01 They'd have to vote for different politicians, like America did with Trump, then the whole world could tell you what a bunch of Naz1s the Irish are. It ain't happening. Your Globalists friends have a plan, and you and the rest of the Irish aren't going to like it. But you don't have the sack to stop it, so it will be coming your way.
Jihadi Community Centre?
I think in this day and age, it's way too expensive to save all these old mansions. Pull them down and build houses the population can afford.
The two things aren’t mutually exclusive: it’s possible to preserve our architectural heritage while at the same time building new homes.
There are also many unfinished houses on these grounds from a failed development of the grounds including housing, as well as an international standard golf course. I believe the developer went bust and It’s been locked up and fenced off for years now. It’s such a waste of a beautiful site not far from where I live myself.
Marxist gobshyte.
Lovely property. Could be used for classes for children dance music art.
Er? It's in 'Ireland' mate.
