- GA043-070: Castle - tower house, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CGA043-070----. On a slight hummock in level pastureland; it formerly stood on the shore of W arm of a shallow lake called Lough Rusheens (now drained). In existence in 1574 when it was in the possession of 'Vllig McRichard' (Nolan 1901b, 118). The ruins comprise the tumbled walls of a rectangular tower (L 8.4m, Wth c. 4.8m) of at least two storeys. Only the lower sections of E, and adjoining sections of N and S walls are still in situ, but sufficient remains to indicate that there was a vault between ground/1st floor. Possible traces of steps in SE corner hint that the doorway may have been in S wall. The only surviving architectural features are an aumbry and an enigmatic diagonal chute-like ope in N wall on ground floor. The castle stood in NW part of a large roughly quadrangular bawn, the foundations and some sections of the walls (H 3m) of which are still visible. The original entrance (Wth 5.3m) appears to have been in NW corner immediately N of the castle. An earthwork (GA043-071----), which is reputed to have played a part in its destruction, lies 250m to W (Nolan 1901a, 36; O'Flanagan 1927, Vol. 1, 131) The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.

It flat pastureland, 250m W of a castle (GA043-070----); it formerly stood close to the shore on an arm of Lough Rusheens (now drained), opposite the castle. Marked on 3rd ed. of OS 6-inch map (1930) as an oblong mound (c. 35m by c. 25m). The visible remains comprise an oval hillock (NE-SW 36m, NW-SE 18.2m, H 3m), probably largely natural in origin. Traces of a wide flat-bottomed fosse encircle the base from SSE through W to ENE. Outside the latter, from SSE to S, are traces of an external bank. Its flat summit, lozenge-shaped in plan, has a hollow area at the centre. According to OS Letters (O'Flanagan 1927, Vol. 1, 131), it was built in the 17th C as an artillery platform to aid in the destruction of the nearby castle: 'a captain Elleen, who brought cannon … from Galway, … fired on it [the castle] from a battery which he raised for the purpose'.

A townland is the smallest land division of Ireland, and the unit of a rural address; old registers such as the 1901 and 1911 censuses file it under its civil parish and barony.

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.
