Kilwaughter Castle, located in Co Antrim, has a rich history dating back to the 17th century when it was owned by the Agnew family. The castle underwent significant renovations in the early 19th century under the direction of architect John Nash, becoming a grand stately home. However, after changing hands multiple times and facing challenges such as being seized during World War II, the castle fell into disrepair and is now a hauntingly beautiful ruin. Efforts are underway to preserve this historic site and bring it back to its former glory, with local support and community initiatives driving the restoration project forward.
