Carrigaphooca Castle, County Cork

Carrigaphooca Castle
Carrigaphooka Castle (The Rock of the Fairies) is situated about two miles west of Macroom, just off the Macroom-Killarney Road. It's a four storey tower, built about 1436 by the Mac Carthy family. It rests on a good example of a glacial "roche mountonne", an ice smoothed mound or sandstone. There is an excellent view of the Sullane Valley from the top of the castle.
