Description
Ormonde Castle Manor House in Ireland was built by Thomas, the 10th Earl of Ormonde, who was also known as “Black Tom” Butler. He finished the structure in 1560 while his cousin, Queen Elizabeth I was in power. Tom included all the queen's favourite symbols and workmanship in the manor, but sadly, Elizabeth never came to visit.
Ormonde Castle is part tower house with a built-on Manor House. The original castle was built in 1309 and fell into ruin. You can see how two of the four original Irish castle towers are incorporated in the Tudor manor house. The castle is Ireland’s only major unfortified dwelling from the 16th century. The murder holes and guardrooms were not included in the manor house plans, as defence was replaced by style.
