    Mosney Camp is marked on the 1900ish OSI 25" map as an open field. The Cassini map from the 30s shows buildings in a similar layout to today, Butlins opened there in 1948, now a centre for asylum seekers. Streetview stops at the gates.

    Monkey took at least thirteen photos of Woodpark - catalogue.nli.ie/Search/Results?lookfor=%5BWoodpark+House...

    Have the horses bolted (see stable doors) as a result of Monkey swinging by? Or not yet in residence? I can't see any horse apples ...

    From godolphin.com Woodpark Stud

    Woodpark was purchased by the McVey Family in 1939 from Mrs Benson (the former Miss Peard, a name long associated with Phoenix Park Racecourse). Over the following 30 years the McVeys stood the stallions Balidar, Bright News, Tamerlane, Tower Walk, Solferino and Sunny Way. In 1977 James McVey sold the farm to a Mr Fitzpatrick who used it as a grazing farm for cattle. Woodpark Stud was purchased from Fitzpatrick in November 1982 on behalf of H.H. Sheikh Mohammed. In April 1989 the farm transferred to H.H. Sheikh Maktoum al Maktoum's Gainsborough Stud Company. Following the death of H.H. Sheikh Maktoum in 2006, the farm transferred to the Kildangan operation on behalf of Godolphin.

    Woodpark Stud is located just outside Dunboyne and it is a farm of 670 acres
  • Niall McAuley said:
    There is a Big House named Woodpark on the site on the 1830s 6", but it's gone on the 1900ish 25", usually means it burned down accidentally.
  • Charles ODowd said:
    Every building visible in these images would appear to have been demolished, and replaced with what is presumably an octogonal stud farm and several smaller houses.
