What is recorded here

Lisgriffin Castle is a ruined stronghouse built around 1605 by the Barry family to overlook the Bregoge River valley. The Barrys lost it in 1657 after the Irish Rebellion, and it stood as a ruin by 1814. A descendant named Colonel Grove-White still removed a limestone mantelpiece from the top floor in 1911, proving the stones resisted forgetting even after centuries of neglect.

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

Lisgriffin Castle was built in the 17th century by the Blake family, who were prominent landowners in County Cork. It is remembered as an example of early Irish country house architecture and for its historical association with the Blake lineage.
