1830c – Strancally Castle, Co. Waterford
Architect: George Pain
Very much in the style of George Pain’s other country house castles. Lewis in his Topographical Dictionary refers to Strancally Castle as “a modern castle, seat of J. Keily” in 1837. It stands in front of the original ruin of a Desmond castle, which contained an infamous murdering hole, which dispatched those who incurred the wrath of a Desmond to the river below. Still existing today, it was recently restored.
