Camphill Community, Glencraig

One of the many buildings on the sprawling 100 acre site of the Camphill Community at Glencraig near Holywood. This old converted house appears to be the focal point of the site which now includes dozens of buildings. I think that the house now contains a school and is known as Amairgin. See http://glencraig.org.uk/about.htm for more information on the Gencraig Camphill Community. Looking at some old maps of the area there was once a house known as Glencarrick on this site c1850 but I don't know if this building has any connection to that.
