Milltown Castle (in ruins)

In pasture, on limestone crag on gentle SE-facing slope. This L-shaped tower house stood in SW quadrant of cashel (LI020-004001-) has now been reduced to ground level. Westropp (1906-7, 208) described the remains here as 'fragment of an old house, with a tall chimney' but it seems most of its stone was used in the 18th century in the building of nearby Altavilla House (Donnelly 1994, vol. 2, 152). Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011 This monument is subject to a preservation order made under the National Monuments Acts 1930 to 2014 (PO no. 4/1977).
