Saturday last we had the pleasure of having Christine and Tony McAleavy give a talk at Castletown on the remarkable story of Batty Langley (1696-1751), author, garden designer, surveyor, architect, Freemason, teacher, businessman and inventor.

We were delighted to host the talk and had a wonderful audience in attendance.
