Summary

Description
English: Former An Óige Youth Hostel at Glencree, Co Wicklow Stone House was part of the Glencree Reformatory complex, though outside its walls. It was about two hundred years old, originally the house of the commander of the army barracks opposite, when An Óige took it as their hostel in the Glencree Valley in 1950. Glencree was a popular hostel, but the decision to close it and concentrate on Knockree, down the valley, was taken and it was last used in 2001. Here it is shown after closure in late 2005. Please contact if you have any tales to tell of old hostels like this.
