Location

Derryhiveny Castle is located {{Convert|4.4|km|abbr=on}} northeast of Portumna, on the west bank of the Shannon.[4][5]

History

The O'Madden family held the lands around Derryhivenny from c. AD 950 until the middle of the seventeenth century. On 5 February 1639, the head of the family, John O'Madden died, leaving his lands to his son, Daniel O'Madden. Daniel then set about building himself a tower house.[6]

The castle was built in 1643 by Daniel O'Madden.[7]

Its date is known from an inscription on one of its bartizan corbels: D:O'M ME:FIERI:FECIT 1643.

Description

Derryhiveny Castle is a tower house of four storeys. There are vaults on all four storeys.

The upper rooms have two- and three-mullioned windows with fireplaces, including one with a chamfered lintel, curved downwards at each end and covered by a chamfered cornice.[8][9][10]

There are also remains of a bawn, wall walk and crenellations.[11][12][13][14][15][16]
