Carlow is home to some fantastic historic sites! Lets look at Ballymoon Castle!
Ballymoon Castle lies just 3.5 km east of Bagenalstown. Dating back to the 14th century, this castle is as striking as it is unusual. It features a courtyard roughly 80 feet square, surrounded by granite walls that are 8 feet thick and 20 feet high. Square towers project from three sides, while a formidable gatehouse stands on the fourth side.
Today, the castle’s interior is bare, but it once housed two-storey structures built against the inner walls. Roger Bigod or a member of the Carew family most likely constructed Ballymoon Castle. Visitors can access it directly from the R724 Bagenalstown-Fennagh road via a small timber footbridge.
