Bargy Castle

Bargy Castle is a Norman fortress near Tomhaggard in County Wexford, Ireland, built around a square keep with later wings. Two perpendicular wings were added in the 15th and 17th centuries; the keep and additions survive and have been renovated. The castle sits in parkland approached by a long drive and retains a small funerary mausoleum sited by the main entrance.

As it stood in 1660

The shape it held in its prime.

A broad, square stone keep with crenellated parapets forms the core, to which two rectangular wings project at right angles, producing an L-shaped plan. Walls are of local grey stone with vertically aligned rectangular windows in the wings and narrower slit openings in the keep. The roofline is defined by battlements and a taller tower at one corner. The castle stands within lawns and scattered trees reached by a gravel drive, with a small freestanding mausoleum positioned directly before the main entrance.
