According to Adams (1881, 492) there was an extensive brick mansion here, the property of Sir James Ware (1594-1666), noted scholar, antiquarian and Auditor-General of Ireland. The Civil Survey (1654-6) describes Ware's Meakstown holdings in some detail: 'There is upon ye premises a dwelling house of Brick with other office houses therto belonging-as a barne & a stable. Also an orchard and Garden Plott Valu'd by ye Jury at 300 li'. Together with 140 acres of land, the Meakstown house constituted the most valuable of Ware's Dublin properties, granted to him in 1638 (Simington 1945, 202).

The site is to the rear of a dilapidated farmyard on a T junction. This location is based on the 1st edition OS 6-inch map (1838), which places the legend 'Site of Castle' directly to the south of the roadside farm buildings still visible today, almost exactly in the centre of the present farmyard. This identification is consistent with the OS Name Book for Santry parish, which states: 'the offices and out-houses stand on the site of Castle which formerly fronted the road'. Not visible at ground level. Monitoring (Licence no. 05E0044) was undertaken at the reputed location of Meakstown Castle in advance of development. It followed from two test excavation untaken at the site in 1999 (Licence no. 99E0351/Ext.). No definitive remains of Meakstown Castle were found in either assessment. The monitoring also failed to uncover similar definite archaeological remains relating to the castle. The site of the castle was occupied by farm buildings covering an area of c. 1 acre. Boulder clay was identified under the foundations and it was clear that the ground level was significantly reduced when these sheds were built in the middle of the 20th century. The absence of any buildings on the site on John Rocque’s map of 1760 suggests that the castle site may be located elsewhere. The most likely candidate is the site of Meakstown House (DU014-020001-), located on the northern side of St Margaret's Road immediately to the north of the supposed site of the castle (O’Donovan Excavations.ie 2006:657).

Excavation (Licence no. 05E044EXT) undertaken at the site in advance of a residential development indicated that it had been used for domestic occupation and agricultural activity during the medieval period. Ditches, drains and cobbling were uncovered. There was only limited evidence for medieval structural remains including an L-shaped ditch representing the foundation remains of a square or rectangular structure. It is likely that the main dwelling was located somewhere outside the area of excavation. A large assemblage (1,003 sherds) of medieval pottery was recovered, all of which was derived from vessels that had been produced in the Dublin and/or Leinster area. There were no examples of imported wares. Of note among the metal finds were a possible arrowhead, a French jetton and two medieval buckles. The features and finds uncovered indicate the site was occupied during the late 12th – 15th centuries (McQuade 2007).
