While out on a walk yesterday evening I came across the first Chestnut from the horse chestnut trees, I have seen this Autumn. It was a very wet afternoon but I managed to get these images while sitting underneath my Brolly.

A sense of place Ducketts grove, county Carlow

Ducketts grove is described in full on this link.

Here in this post however I just wanted to show a visual sense of this old Castle sitting in the middle of county Carlow, the photographs were taken during the winter of 2010. Its a wonderful place to visit on a late winters afternoon when the tree’s are all stripped of leafs and the ground is hard and cold.

The cold and snow of a winters day, seems to match so well this wonderful abandoned place.
