Yea, I saw this on the news this morning.

I actually photographed a wedding in the Barn late last year. Beautiful space and I bet there are many many couples who are going to be in big trouble looking for other wedding venues right now!

Another venue I photographed last year, Peckforton Castle, was partially burned down by a Groom (during his own wedding!) over a bill dispute. He is currently behind bars for it. I'm not saying that is the case here, but people do really really stupid things some times!
