    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

    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.

    Robb's tower. The house at the back was built by some famous architect or other. I forget who, but the NIAH would know.
  • derangedlemur said:
    Hmm. Apparently it's either not architecture or not heritage.

A lot of horse power in these stables!

    Hi, Is that a turntable?
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Leonard Bentley Hello Leonard. I don't think so. It looks to me like a beautifully paved, but fixed structure. There is a sort of "gutter" all the way around, so presumably it was a washing area?
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The circle is still visible on Google maps. Here is the historic OSI link.

    There are 87 people listed in the Demesne in the 1901 census, including: Jarvis David 26 M England Coachman Bruen Michael 20 M Co Roscommon Stable Boy Domestic Servant Bruen John 19 M Co Roscommon Stable Boy Domestic Servant I think it is likely that those three are here somewhere. There are also many gardeners, gamekeepers, a Steward, a Butler and an RIC constable.
