In Reply to: George, what has happened to "the Castle" ?............ posted by tweedy on September 19, 2001 at 16:41:43:
Hi,
Nice question about the castle. I'm afraid the family may not be opening the castle as a gallery.
Some of the family were there recently and removed all signs of the gallery being there. Maybe they'll rent the castle or sell it, I don't know yet. It looks however that it will not be operated further as an art gallery selling Lord Macmillans work. I don't think he's happy with that but that the way things go. They could've built so much on what he has already done there.
He and the gallery will certainly be a big miss in Tarpum Bay. This only leaves us with the Mal Flanders art gallery. Things are a changing here.
Our unique people are passing on. The youth here are quite blend and not as talented unfortunately as they can be. We are largely a tourist town so we need unique people with a mind to do attractive things here, galleries, resturants etc.

: that is since the death of Lord McMillian Hughes. It was always something special to see as you drove down into Tarpun Bay. You can see it I remember from quite a ways away.
: Just wondered if his family will keep the gallery open and continue to sell some of his works.
: Thank you for answering.
