Title A name given to the resource Kilcolman Castle from the northwest Description An account of the resource The nineteenth-century platform addition is in the foreground. The Ballyhoura range of mountains can be glimpsed in the distance. To the south of the castle (in the background) is a marsh and seasonal lake, now part of a nature preserve. Spenser, in his wedding poem “Epithalamion” (1595), curses the frogs that annoy him and his bride on their wedding night: “Ne let th’unpleasant quyre of frogs still croking/ Make us to wish theyr choking” (lines 349-50). Far from being a nuisance only, the lake would have served as a natural defensive barrier for the castle and as a source of water and food. https://collections.ecu.edu/files/original/28/931/south-west_view_[7].jpg 7a8fb16cd303ff60e87014f122a2ac8f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Kilcolman Castle from the southwest Description An account of the resource Because it is on a ridge, the castle from this direction would have looked even more imposing (the castle would also have had at least two more stories, including parapets). The castle would also have had a "bawn" (i.e., enclosure) wall directly in front of it, further protecting it and surrounding buildings from attack. The door at the bottom of the tower house in this view is modern. Above it is seen an aperture and above it, “Raleigh's window.” In the staircase block on the right (east) side can be seen three more arrow loops. At ground level can be seen an exit chute for the garderobe (modified in modern times), strategically located to drain towards the lake. https://collections.ecu.edu/files/original/26/834/image05.jpg 6e405ddbbe47bc62f2ca523eb8470ad9 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Kilcolman from the north Description An account of the resource View from the north of Kilcolman Castle ruins, from within the area of the "bawn" or enclosure, which is no longer extant. In Spenser's time the castle would have been at least two stories taller (including the roof and battlements) and much more substantial, with a complex of buildings situated on the eastern flank. In the foreground is the nineteenth-century addition, a platform or patio built around and over the pre-existing vault and accessible from the stairs and doorway in the tower-house. Behind the platform area stand the remains of the late-medieval tower-house. On the left (east) side is the tower containing the staircase and garderobe. On the right, above the platform, is seen the outline of "Raleigh's window," where legend has it that Spenser and Sir Walter Raleigh discussed poetry and politics.
