My Connection
My wife and I lived in Ballydehob, West Cork, Ireland when Jeremy Irons bought Kilcoe Castle and began renovating it.
Several of his workers and occasionally Jeremy were customers of our shop. It was a very interesting episode that lasted many years, in fact long after we moved on.
This photo is a Before.
Before he bought the castle Jeremy had a home between Ballydehob and Skibbereen in which he hosted many celebrity guests. Leonardo DeCaprio sitings were the favourite.
One of my favourite stories involved one of the local pubs known for its upper crust clientel. Julia, the publican was well over 80 but still active and alert. One night Jeremy brought in Kevin Costner for a few drinks and conversation and Julia pitched in and was a good hostess but as they were leaving she shook his hand and said, "Now dear, what was your name again?"
