Medieval Castle Discovered Hidden
A University College Dublin professor discovered that a medieval castle thought to be lost had survived inside a Victorian-era building on the campus. The castle, believed to have been dismantled by the 18th century, retains 70 to 80 percent of its original structure beneath modern plaster, including features like thick walls, a stone vault, and splayed windows. The castle’s ownership history includes notable figures, such as a master of the Irish legal system and a brief residence by King James II. The finding suggests other historic castles may still be hidden within existing buildings across Ireland.
