Skryne Castle, Medieval castle ruins in County Meath, Ireland.
The stone walls of Skryne Castle stand three stories tall, featuring fortified defensive structures and tower elements from the medieval period.
Adam de Feypo constructed this motte and bailey castle during the 12th century as part of the Norman expansion across Ireland.
The castle holds connections to the FitzGerald family, who influenced the development of numerous fortifications throughout medieval Ireland.
The five-bedroom castle structure operates as a self-catering accommodation, providing visitors with an opportunity to stay within historical walls.
Local accounts tell of Lilith Palmerston's spirit, dressed in white, who appears near the castle after her tragic death in the 18th century.
