Dromoland Castle

Large 19th-century castle-house in County Clare, Republic of Ireland. It was built about 1826 on the site of an earlier 18th-century house for Sir Edward O'Brien, a descendant of Brian Bóruma, High King of Ireland. The designers were James and George Richard Pain, both pupils of the English architect John Nash. The main external features of this impressive composition are three large towers, one round, one square, and one octagonal. The castle was sold in 1962 and is now a hotel.
