So sad to think that such a magnificent piece of architecture was looted and burned in 1922. The attention to detail in this model is exceptional, and I say that as someone who knows more about the history of Mitchelstown Castle and the Earls of Kingston than anyone. It's loss to this nation has been immense. A judge in the High Court in 1927 described it as 'a wanton act of destruction' - there was no military purpose to it. Your recreation of the castle in model form is a credit to your talent and dedication. I've had the coats of arms from the castle since 1995. If anyone wants to have a look at them they're welcome, (by appointment).
well done daddy !!! 😀
Fantastic work. It's great to see Mitchelstown Castle brought back to life. Thank you
