		Askeaton was then granted to the Berkeley family and they held the Castle and the surrounding 12,000 acres for about two hundred years.

	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Askeaton
		Askeaton Friary or Abbey, a Franciscan monastery, was probably founded in 1389 by Gearóid Iarla, poet and Fourth Earl of Desmond.
		While there was undoubtedly an unusually high incidence of animal disease on a small number of farms in the Askeaton area, in addition to the Somers and Ryan farms, neither the number of farms involved nor their geographical spread, suggests that this provides evidence of a phenomenon affecting the wider Askeaton area as a whole.
		That said, the metal compounds emitted in the Askeaton area, or which are found in dust blown from the waste lagoons at the Aughinish Alumina plant, also occur naturally in normal soils at relatively high levels, and would therefore not be regarded as particularly harmful.

	A2zsoccer :: Ireland :: Pallas suffer narrow loss
		A long ball from midfield wasn't dealt with by the Pallaskenry defence and the Askeaton forward got his foot to the ball and rolled past the keeper into the bottom corner.
		The same can also be said for Askeaton as they had very few opportunities in the second half to add to their lead as the Pallas defence stood firm.
		That one goal from Askeaton in the first half proved to be enough but Pallaskenry can take heart from their performance as they never gave up but in the end, it just wasn't our day.

	CIRCA Art Magazine - Online review - Welcome to the neighbourhood, Askeaton, dates? (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Such a disparate, though interesting, combination of artists, together with the removal of the exhibition from the usual comfort zone of an urban and gallery based environment, admittedly initially fuelled both excitement and reservation.
		Doireann O’Malley likewise engaged with the inhabitants and locality of Askeaton through the medium of photography.
		O’Malley’s photographs of the peripheries of the town project a remote though industrialised suburb, while her portraits of individuals living and working in the town are more resolute.

	BLUE: Feature Archive - Askeaton
		As the animals died in their hundreds, farming families around the Askeaton and Ballysteen areas felt powerless - particularly those of Liam Somers and Justin Ryan who between them had lost roughly 200 animals and watched their neighbours succumb to all manner of unusual diseases.
		Although the farmers around Askeaton practised industrial agriculture for the benefit of the national economy, they were unwittingly up against a global hierarchy - in the form of the chemical industry.
		Interestingly it is the belief of Somers and several other Askeaton farmers that the government is admitting that the problem has not been caused by the farmers.
