Dunseverick Castle
Dunseverick Castle is a small medieval stone castle on a basalt promontory on the County Antrim coast of Northern Ireland, near the Giant's Causeway. Only fragments of the fortress remain today; the site and surrounding earthworks are National Trust property and a scheduled historic monument. The castle was an important early medieval site and later a manorial and military stronghold before destruction in the 17th century.

As it stood in 1600
The shape it held in its prime.
Perched on a grassy basalt promontory above the Atlantic, the castle at its prime consisted of a dark grey basalt residential tower and associated stone gate-lodge set amid earthwork ramparts, with ruined masonry running toward the cliff edges. The stonework was rough-hewn local basalt; the tower rose several storeys with small vertical window slits and an intact roofline in 1600, and a compact ward lay between tower and landward approach.
