<p>Charlesfort, or Dún Chathail in the Irish language, was built between 1677 and 1682 during the reign of Charles II as a fortress to defend against attacks from enemies approaching via the sea. William Robinson, who designed the Royal Hospital in Kilmainham in Dublin, is credited with the design of the fort. A bastion fort with one section of the curtain wall built in star fashion. It is located on the water's edge, at the southern end of the village of Summer Cove, on Kinsale harbour, County Cork, Ireland.First completed in 1682.<br />
<br />
The tragic suicide of a mourning bride has left a sad and sometimes unfriendly ghost at Charlesfort, in Cork, one of Ireland's most famous ghosts: The White Lady of Kinsale. One of the fort’s soldiers married a local girl and they stayed at the fort for their wedding night. The soldier had watch duty that night and a bit drunk from the day’s celebrations fell asleep. Other soldiers in the fort found him asleep while on duty and the Forts commander had him shot for dereliction of his duty, After hearing about her husband’s death, the bride flung herself to her death from one of the fort’s walls.<br />
<br />
Decades after the tragedy, The White Lady was seen wandering through Charlesfort by soldiers and their families, especially children. Two sergeants were packing up some equipment when one man’s daughter asked who the White Lady smiling at her was. Both men saw nothing, but the girl was adamant that a woman in a white dress had been looking at her. In another sighting, a nurse saw The White Lady standing over the bed of a sleeping child. She haunts the fort today and there have been many contemporary sightings of her.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/156679860@N02/49932124421/" title="Ballycarbery Castle Ireland"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49932124421_42e966de8f_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Ballycarbery Castle Ireland" /></a></p>

<p><br />
Ballycarbery Castle is a castle 3 kilometres from Cahersiveen, County Kerry, Ireland. Local legends say there is an underground tunnel linking the Castle to the nearby Stone Fort of Cahergall. The entrance to this tunnel is supposed to be under the south east corner of the castle.<br />
<br />
Ballycarbery was the centre of Corca Dhuibhne power, these people had control of the land of Iveragh from about the 6th Century until approximately 1200 AD. In the 14th Century, the O’Shea’s were over-thrown and the MacCarthy’s who held the lands around Killarney took control. When the MacCarthy’s were driven out of Killarney they moved their lands into Iveragh and Donal MacCarthy Mor built the castle for his son Tadhg, who was married to the daughter of the 4th Earl of Desmond.<br />
<br />
In 1565 Daniel MacCarthy Mor pledged his loyalty to the Queen of England, This pledge of loyalty meant that if MacCarthy Mor did not have an heir to his estate his lands would be confiscated by the Queen. This happened at the end of the 17th Century and the land was handed over to Trinity College, Dublin, which divided the land and leased it to landlords. Possession of the castle passed to Sir Valentine Browne following the death of the Earl of Clancarre in 1596. <br />
<br />
The majority of the perimeter walls were destroyed by Cromwell¹s army. It appears to have been attacked by parliament forces in 1651-2, when Valentia Harbour was being fortified. Dated by Leask to the 15th Century, it comprises a fine, ivy covered tower house surrounded by the remains of a bawn. Much of the South and East walls of both the keep and bawn are destroyed, presumably due to the mid 17th Century attack, though a portion of the southern bawn was dismantled and removed in the early 20th Century.</p>
