The Office of Public Works have apparently bought Castletown with a view to refurbishing it. Good! The people of Celbridge are delighted for their local amenity to be upgraded, now that it at last belongs to us the Taxpayer. As a 35-year resident of Celbrige, I have been able to enjoy this local amenity as have my children and grandchildren. So I thank the OPW for this.
A couple of remarks however. I read last week in the LC some comments made by a spokesperson from the OPW who does not seem to appreciate what Castletown House, Celbridge means to the people of Celbridge.
