Parkavonear Castle

Parkavonear Castle is a 13th-century Anglo-Norman ruin in Aghadoe in Ireland, overlooking the lakes of Killarney.

It is two stories high, and, unusually, is built to a cylindrical design rather than the more common rectangular shape for Norman castles.

Only the stone parts of the structure remain, as the wooden floors and roof have deteriorated and been removed.

Parkavonear Castle takes its name from the Irish paírc an mhóinéir, meaning field of the meadow.
