Ireland is filled with ruined castles, but few have a story quite like Brittas Castle in County Tipperary. In this episode of Whispering Stones, Bernice Cooke explores the remarkable history of Ireland's finest unfinished Medieval Revival castle. Discover the visionary architect William Vitruvius Morrison, the Langley family, the tragic accident that ended construction, and why this extraordinary Gothic fortress still stands surrounded by its working moat almost two centuries later.
