Castlepook or Castle Pook is a Norman style castle built in 1380 by the Synan family.[1]The castle stands at coordinates {{coord|52.25356|-8.56405|type:landmark_region:IE-C_scale:10000_source:gnis|name=Castle Pook}}, a few miles north of Doneraile, in the foothills of the Ballyhoura Mountains in County Cork, Ireland. Castlepook is made of limestone, with a stone vaulted roof which is still intact. There was once a spiral staircase made of stone in the southwest corner.[1] Much of the smooth stone (such as was used for the stairs and window / door frames) has been removed by vandals.{{fact|date=March 2019}} References 1. ^1 {{cite web| title = Castlepook info | publisher = Synan Family Historical Society | url = http://synan.org/castles-of-the-synans/castlepook/| accessdate = 5 March 2019 }}
