• TN036-007 Castle - unclassified
  Description

  Situated on a natural rise of ground approx. 200m W of nineteenth-century Lisheen Castle with extensive views in all directions. In 1840 the OS Letters recorded that in the ‘townland of Lisheen are the ruins of another castle situated on a small hill. The only part now at all perfect is the northeast angle which remains to the height of about thirty six feet (11m); there are other scattered fragments but none sufficiently distinct to merit description. The original dimensions of the building cannot be ascertained with any certainty as the foundations are not traceable. In the fragment of the north wall remaining are two quadrangular windows constructed of cut limestone. The walls are seven feet (2.1m) in thickness and constructed of large field limestones well grouted. Two of its floors rested on stone arches, as appears from fragments of them still remaining but the number of floors cannot now be ascertained,. Mr Lloyd is now building a new castle (Lisheen Castle) about forty perches (200m) to the east of it’ (O'Flanagan 1930, vol. 1, 167). No visible remains at ground level.
