The Wonderful Barn

The Wonderful Barn is an unusual and striking structure, based on the design of an Indian rice store. Built as a poverty relief project funded by John Glin of the Castletown estate, and therefore of historical and social interest, the conical grain store is one of only two in the country and has interesting details such as the external stone stairs and unusually-shaped openings.
