Jigginstown Castle is a tower house and National Monument was constructed in the late 1630s when Ireland was under the reign of Charles I (1625-1649). At the time it was one of the largest buildings in Ireland, and the first to be constructed of red brick: the plans provided for a pavement and columns of Kilkenny marble. Jigginstown Castle was built at Naas, County Kildare, on the periphery of an area known as The Pale, which was on the ouskirts of Dublin.
