killincarrig fortified house

One of the few surviving houses of the early 17th century in Ireland, this is an L-shaped house which was the first to be taken by Cromwell on his march from Dublin to Wexford in 1649. On the ground floor it has a main hall with a fireplace, a kitchen at right angles and stairs in a tower projecting from one side of the hall. The house has 23 single or double-mullioned windows, and two chimneys.
