Description
Transcript of text: - Built by the McSwineys who were originally warders for the McCarthys. It is a strong keep but the lower part of the stairs is destroyed. It was almost destroyed by the Earl of Desmond in 1598 but was rebuilt soon after. There were handsome marble mantelpieces in some of the rooms. In 1844 the castle was floored and roofed and the stairs repaired by the Earl of Bandon. In 1613 it passed to Edward Southworth. - Cork Jour. 1892, 1908, 1909. - Download size (PDF): 111 KB.
