Parke's Castle

Parke's Castle sits on the shores of Lough Gill.  There is a scenic cruise that leaves Parke's Castle, taking you around the lake with stories of the area.

(1) is the foundation site for O'Rourke's Tower House.

I'm amazed that any child over the age of 4 years survived.  As accident prone as my son was (and still is), he would have fallen down the stairs as soon as he began to crawl!  Maybe they had 'baby-gates'.

O'Rourke's Table.  I'm getting into shape now for the climb up on my next trip to Ireland!
