Puxley Castle Manor
Castle / Castle
Until recently, Puxley Castle was a ruin. The house was burned down by the IRA in 1921 (which incidentally happened to many English properties). Lo and behold it has been rebuilt with additions that have the character of a hotel/conference center. The original was built by the O´Sullivans. This ancient Irish family was originally based at Tipperary and was expelled from there by the Normans in 1192. Finally they came to Beara, where they built ´Dunboy Castle´ not far from Castletownbere, of which only a few stones remain. . Later then the other house Puxley Manor was built. It can currently only be admired from the outside. .
