Castletown (Louth)

This fine mouth-puller was once on the castle wall,
but is now on the wall of a sunken tennis court in front of the castle which is now a convent.

A photo taken nearly thirty years earlier, before re-cementing of the tennis-court wall.

Not far away was another similar mouthpuller at:

"Carntown Castle near the town of Carntown (Baile Chairnigh) in Co. Louth.
Woodcut by Edmund Evans (1826-1905) after George Victor Du Noyer (1817-1869)."

Neither castle nor mouth-puller (corbel) survive.
