Baltimore Castle

An 800-Year History

Built in 1215, not long after the coming of the Normans to Ireland, Baltimore castle has in the course of 800 years reflected in its changing ownership the shifting fortunes of Irish history. The Castle, known in Irish as  Dún na Séad (the Fort of the Jewels), has now been lovingly restored by the author and her husband, and in this book she reveals the story not only of a building, but also of it's owners, its inhabitants, its demise and its rebirth.
