In times past, the ancient city of Limerick itself was entirely contained on the southern most part of the island known as Englishtown, as a walled city . Only a few pieces of the city wall s now remain. In medieval times the city expanded to include Irishtown to the south of the Abbey River. Nicholas street and Mary Street on the island formed the medieval city centre of Limerick. Following the development of Newtown Pery the city centre shifted south to the present day centre of the city. Many buildings and shops on the island are now derelict or in deteriorating conditions. The island probably took its name after the Medi val Britain 13th century English castle was built.
