    Reminds of all the stories back in the day of planes landing at Shannon Airport for refuelling and then being held because of fog. Limerick didn't have enough hotels so people could get sent out to Kilkee. Including Che Guevara! kilkee.clareheritage.org/people/che-guevara-in-kilkee

    " ... By the end of the nineteenth century, it became necessary to replace the original Penrose Quay terminus with a larger station, Kent Station, which opened on 2 February 1893. ..."
    [Aside] - "The station served as a filming location for the 1979 movie The First Great Train Robbery starring Seán Connery, Donald Sutherland and Lesley-Anne Down."

    Isnt it a manor,where rich folks lived?Wartime castle would be much heavier defended!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Dima Muzhetsky Definitely where "rich folks lived", but nothing to stop it being called Castle Bernard. And depending on when it was built, those battlements may have been purely decorative.

    Not far from where I grew up. My mother used to bring us to pick horse mushrooms in the area around it. Sadly, like many other fine houses, the IRA burnt it down in 1921.
