#96: Newtown Castle near Ballyvaughan. This is a 1 of 1 oddball original. It's a round tower house (almost non-existent in Ireland) with a very tall pyramidal base and window slits designed for plunging fire at attackers at said base. Has an unusual door set high up on the side of the tower whose use is highly speculative. Escape rope ladder?
On the grounds of an art college which was vacant when I visited. Tower door was unlocked, so I explored.
