🏰 Recently completed conservation works at the Gate Lodge of Macroom Castle have uncovered evidence suggesting that parts of the structure may date from the time of the MacCarthy Lords of Muskerry, potentially between 1500 and 1660. If confirmed through further archaeological and archival research, the findings could significantly revise the accepted history of the Gate Lodge and identify it as one of the few surviving architectural fragments directly connected to Macroom’s Gaelic lordship era. The project was supported through the Historic Towns Initiative, with funding from The Heritage Council, Cork County Council and the Trustees of #Macroom Castle. ➡️ Read more: bit.ly/4wrmg8O @HeritageHubIRE
