What is recorded here

Clonshire Castle rose on a low rise beside the Clonshire River as a church-owned stronghold, its thick keep later heightened with a carved spiral stair and eastern rooms. It passed from bishops to temporary military holders during the seventeenth-century turmoil, yet the stone basin near a possible chapel keeps the suggestion of prayer inside a defensive house. The collapsed walls and missing floors do not erase that layering; they expose a place where worship, residence and control were built into the same rising ground.

Clonshire Castle is recorded as a castle in County Limerick. Its open map record supplies this location and any linked names or public references.

Clonshire Castle was built in the 17th century by the Blake family, who were prominent landowners in the area. It is remembered as a historic family seat and an example of early Irish country house architecture.
