Anybody reading this post now………Castletown House Castletown House Castletown House!!!!!! I cant say it enough! There are some pictures on this site bit believe me its worth seeing it its full glory. Take the 67/67A (Bus stop just up from that Clarance hotel) and alight at the top of Celbridge Main street, after a quiet walk up the tree lined (but some what poyhole infested) avenue you place tour hand under your jaw and turn your head left. I need not say more. Its open from April to spetember and cpsts about 4 euro admission.
The building is finished. I have the pleasure of being a student there and it really does look impressive and quiet striking. I think its almost impossible not to look at it as you drive pass. It is ture that the sails do contrast with the rest of the building (the part i really like, inside is amazing and gives the college the public space it was lacking before). The part reflecting the sails of the galway hooker houses the library and is very welcome as the cold library was possible the most aweful part of the old building. Much more redevelopment to come and all welcome.
