Description
Lantern slide of Hens Castle, Lough Corrib, Co. Galway. Originally labeled '7 G' and with title 'Hens Castle. L Corrib. Co. Galway.' It was apparently built c. 1235 by Feidhlim, king of Connacht, as a replacement for an earlier castle built c. 1200 and burnt in 1233. Known locally as Caisle‡n na Circe, it originally belonged to the O'Connors but later passed to the O'Flahertys.
