    Newcastle graveyard is located close to the Anglo-Norman castle which gives its name to the area. The remains of the castle consist of a hall house with a vaulted roof, a tower and a bawn. The castle is strategically located on the banks of the River Suir close to the fording point . The castle is part of a group of 12th -13th castles built in a line along foothills of the Knockmealdown mountains. This area was the frontier between the Anglo-Norman territory and the Gaelic territory of the Déises . Newcastle was in the control of the Prendergast family from the 13th to the 17th century, it then passed into the hands of the Perry’s family.
