Castles of Connacht: Castle Daly, Galway (1)
These are the ruins of a C19 house of the Daly's whose show facade incorporates the partial remains of an old Blake tower originally known as Corbally. Little remains of the house now as it has been mostly destroyed, apart from the wall that links the old tower on the left, to a second wing on the right, making a balanced composition complete with C19 battlements. An old photograph of the house in its heyday can be seen here: LinkExternal link
