Newcastle Clanwilliam described by Westropp (1906-7, 87) as following; '1583 Castelenoo C[astle], held by W. Bourke, also called "Castellano Trylan" and "Nestermoy" (Des. R., 37; Peyton, 257). 1607 Dom. Roche owned Newcastle-Clanwilliam, meared with the water called Griodane on the west, and the Shannon on the north (Inq. Chan., 2a). 1619 H. Holcroft was granted the C[astle]. and bawn of Newcastle (Pat. R.). 1623 1655 Jordan Roche held it, with fifteen acres of orchard (Inq. Chan.

Fabric - A late peel tower; the west wall and a side turret had fallen before 1840; the latter, it is said, in 1800. It is about 50 feet high [15m], and measures 27½ feet [8.4m] by 21 feet 8 inches [6.6m], with large windows and high gables and chimneys. An improbable tradition makes it the residence of King William during the siege of Limerick (O.S.L., 9, 24)'. The 1654-56 Civil Survey of Limerick recorded that in 1640 Jordane Roche late of Limerick of held in New Castle a 'castle and fifteen Acres of an Orchard mearing on the North'(Simington 1938, 465). Castle described in 1840 as following; 'in the townland of Newcastle stands on a rock a Castle of the same name. It is all perfect except the west wall which is entirely destroyed. It is fifty seven feet four inches [17.5m] by twenty one feet eight inches [6.6m] and the people assert that it had a square tower at the south west corner which fell, with the west side about forty years since [c. 1800]. The remaining walls are fifty feet [15.25m] high and five feet six inches [1.7m] in thickness, and have windows and apertures for five stories [OSL Parish of Kilmurry'.

At the S end of Carrowkeel Housing development, 320m S of the R445. Not marked on any of the OS maps. Archaeological testing of a mound of archaeological potential was undertaken by Tracy Collins under licence No. 02E1402. The results were summarised as following; ‘Three trenches were dug by machine. It was quickly realised that the mound was a natural feature. However, in the longest trench a spread of stony burnt material was discovered, along with two circular pits, which were also filled with the burnt material. These features were interpreted as the remains of a burnt mound, perhaps a fulacht fiadh, with two associated pits, which may have functioned as troughs’ (www.excavations.ie 2002:1145; Collins 2002). The burnt stone material was recorded for a length of 24m N-S while the associated pits were 1m in diameter.
