This is all that remains of Antrim Castle, it was destroyed by a fire which started at the grand staircase during a ball on the 28th October 1922. The castle was built between 1610 and 1666 and the hexagon tower that remains was built in 1887. During the fire a servant, Miss Ethel Gillgan aged 22 from Co.Westmeath was trapped but then rescued from an upstairs window, sadly she died later due to smoke inhalation. It is said that over the years her ghost has been seen dressed in white going around the Castle Gardens. The local people call her ghost 'The White Lady'.
