Description

Rockstown Castle is a ruined Irish tower house from medieval times in County Limerick, Ireland.
It is located near the village of Ballyneety, 7 miles from the city of Limerick.

The tower, with a square floor plan, stands on a rocky outcrop behind the ruins of Rockstown House. It has five floors. Most of the building is intact, but has some damage around the doorway above which there are the remains of a machicolation. It is well equipped with narrow defensive slits most of which have square heads. Some of those at the upper storeys have ogee heads. A trench is cut into the rock directly in front of the entrance door.
