    • The Pale or the English Pale was the part of Ireland that was directly under the control of the English government in the late Middle Ages. The Pale boundary essentially consisted of a fortified ditch and rampart built around parts of the medieval counties of Louth, Meath, Dublin and Kildare, actually leaving half of Meath, most of Kildare, and south west Dublin on the other side. The northern frontier of the pale was marked by the De Verdon fortress of Castle Roche, whilst the southern border roughly corresponds to the present day M50 motorway in Dublin. Areas beyond the Pale were considered as given over to savagery, hence the expression 'Beyond the Pale'.
