It passed through the marriage of Margaret FitzGibbon and Sir William Fenton to the heirs of their daughter, Catherine, and her husband, Sir John King.

In the 1820s the 3rd Earl built a new castle in anticipation of a visit from George IV which never happened.

In 1922 the castle was looted and burnt and the stones were later used to build a church at Mount Melleray.
