At the heart of Woodhouse Estate in Stradbally, the work never stops keeping the estate looking beautiful.

Instrumental to that work is a man known to many as 'Ted.'

In reality, his name is Timothy O'Connell but in a very Irish way, he is known by all as Ted.

He has overseen the entire extensive renovation project in Woodhouse Estate.

As part of the Tour de Blaa, Ted drove Ollie and Dymphna around the estate in his jeep.

He detailed the work, the time, and the love required to restore the estate to its current grandeur.
