While living in a castle may sound like a dream, especially for a couple of history buffs, renovating it is going to be a very difficult job, especially as the building looks like a breeze would be enough to bring it tumbling down. However, over the course of three years and with the help of the Irish crafts community, the Joneses are determined to revive it.
