    fantastic quality and great video - looks like you spooked a couple of interlopers at 2:17 near the barns

    some info and photos here: https://www.greystonesguide.ie/windgate-house-in-all-its-ghostly-glor/

    it was owned by the Fox family (who go back a couple of centuries in the area at least and continue to farm land around Greystones), I don't know if it was sold ofrif some member of the family still owns it. It was still inhabited in the 90s.
