Possible legal action to save castle

The Irish Times

Legal action may be taken to save the remains of Carrickmines Castle, in south Co Dublin, from being bulldozed to make way for a major interchange on the South Eastern Motorway. It is understood that some objectors to the destruction of the complex are considering taking a High Court case to have the medieval site preserved as a national monument.
