Trim Castle is Ireland’s largest Anglo-Norman castle, located in Trim, County Meath. It is best known for its appearance in the film Braveheart, where it represented the walled city of York.
The 40 metres (130 ft) Yellow Steeple is the most prominent remnant of the abbey even though it is a ruin. The tower is thought to have been built shortly after the 1368 fire, but there is also a suggestion that it was built under Richard, Duke of York around 1450.
The Yellow Steeple is alleged to have been destroyed by Oliver Cromwell. The story of the tower's destruction is based on local tradition. According to one account, the Yellow Steeple was actually used as a garrison against Cromwell's troops until the tower was destroyed.
