The heavily carved façade of Lynch's Castle bears the Lynch and Fitzgerald families' coat of arms.
If you look closely
just below this, you may notice the figure of a monkey holding a baby.
This pays tribute to the pet primate who rescued a toddler from the burning building.
Lacking in any official record, this story makes me wonder whether this a heroic tale of a leaping Tarzan, or the original King Kong.
