The National Monuments Service's description

According to Fleming (1903, 210), a 'castle' in Cloyne, on the north side of Rock Street, was destroyed in 1798 and a plaque (CO088-019013----) from it which bore the Fitzgerald arms, the letters IEG (John fitzEdmund fitzGerald) and the date 1606, was removed. There is now no evident trace of this building, the site is occupied by 18th/19th-century town houses. (Zajac et al. 1995, 29)

The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
