Ken Sly and his wife took out a lease on the Blarney Stone, an isolated and badly war damaged house on the West coast of the Island.  They renovated one wing, leaving the one on the left as a ruin. Years later the building was demolished and now the Blarney Stone Villas occupy that site.

The house in the front is located at the junction of Lugard and Mount Austin Roads. It still exists and is used by the Peak Tramways.
