General views of Askeaton Castle. Dating from 1199, here's some info from wiki:

Among the many historic structures in the town are a Franciscan Friary dating from 1389 and a castle dating from 1199. The castle was abandoned to crown forces in 1580 - its walls blown up by the fleeing Alien defenders - after the fall of Carrigafoyle Castle to the English during the Desmond Rebellions.

This is a very interesting town just off the main road. Well worth stopping by for a few hours. Very interesting historical sites combined with a town that doesn't seem to have been ruined by recent developments.

LIMERICK - BUNRATTY, IRELAND - travel shorts

King John's Castle (Irish: Caisleán Luimnigh) is a 13th-century castle located on King's Island in Limerick, Ireland, next to the River Shannon. Although the site dates back to 922 when the Vikings lived on the Island, the castle itself was built on the orders of King John in 1200. One of the best preserved Norman castles in Europe, the walls, towers and fortifications remain today and are visitor attractions. The remains of a Viking settlement were uncovered during archaeological excavations at the site in 1900.

Bunratty (Irish: Bun na Raite, meaning End of the Raite river) is a civil parish in County Clare, Ireland, and a small village by the same name. The village is located next to a major tourist attraction, Bunratty Castle, on the N18 connecting Limerick to Galway. The Raite river defines the eastern boundary of the parish, and flows into the Shannon Estuary, which defines the southern boundary.
