Forgotten and abandoned

Forgotten and abandoned
Castle Warren lies in a field, east of the town of Carrigaline, in County Cork.
The first building on this site was an Anglo-Norman castle; Barnahely Castle. During the 15th-16th century a new castle was built here. That castle was occupied by the archdeacons of Monkstown.

In 1796 Barnahely Castle was bought by the Warren family. They built a mansion, incorporating the remains of the earlier castle, and called it Castle Warren. It are the remains of that mansion in a rectangular bawn that we see today.

Love the stone ruins so prevalent in Europe. Thanks for capturing them in pictures. Even if certain structures fall completely into rubble or are removed, they live on in Photos. I guess in America we have our own "ruins," but they are much younger and usually made of wood. I much prefer the look of the stone ruins.

Thanks for your YS, Eric. Even as European, I LOVE these old witnesses of the past. The older they are, the more fascinating they appear (have a look on my last uploaded photos: here are about 8 thousand years watching you....
