In gently undulating farmland overlooking a stream to the SE. In existence in 1574 when it was in the possession of 'Shane McVillig and McWilliam Roe of Ballindrumnine' (Nolan 1901, 111). Named 'Castle' on the 1837 edition of the OS 6-inch map and indicated thereon as a roofed square building (c. 12m NE-SW; c. 12m NW-SE). On the 1933 edition, the E wall (L c. 10m) and the returns of the N and S walls are shown but there is no trace of the W side. It is depicted on the summit of a small circular earthwork. All that survives is a low subcircular mound (40m N-S; 31m E-W) composed of earth and stones. Its surface is very uneven. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 17 August 2021

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
