What is recorded here

Cahererillan Castle is a five-storey tower house in County Galway, built in two phases inside an older cashel and recorded as belonging to Oheyne by 1574. Its ivy-clad walls still carry murder holes, machicolations, angle bartizans, stone vaults, fireplaces and a possible hidden chamber within a collapsed vault. The castle feels like a place where ordinary life and danger shared the same rooms: light through ogee windows, heat from western fireplaces, and readiness for attack above the doorway.
