What is recorded here

Castle Lucas is a four-storey limestone tower in Cloghanlucas North, County Mayo, built in the fifteenth or sixteenth century for a local Anglo-Norman family. Its narrow loops, murder holes and spiral stair show a home made for defense, while the lost courtyard suggests cattle and people took refuge there during raids. Roofless now, it still stands against the Mayo sky, preserving the tension between domestic warmth and rural danger that shaped lesser nobility across Ireland.
