Liscahane Castle stands in ruins across County Kerry, yet the adjacent Lixnaw seat witnessed a desperate stand when Edmond MacSweeny led barely fifty fighters against a much larger invading force. That small band broke the surrounding army, killing several prominent men and exposing the fatal pride of the larger group. The castle itself remains absent from clear description, but the region still carries the shock of that unexpected victory and the continued harassment that followed.
