While we are on the topic of old stuff, I thought I would include some photos of my wife's castle in Ireland. She is actually an aristocrat of the Drew family and by rights this should be her castle. We are going to launch an invasion to reclaim her birthright. Doesn't she just look like the Lady of the Manor?
McCollop Castle in Co Waterford Ireland was built in the 13th century. I don't know when it fell down but we plan to rebuild.
PS She really is descendent of the Drews of McCollop. We found the crypts of her GGGGG Grandfather and GGGG Grandfather in the McCollop Church burial grounds (they had their own church).
