Recorded monuments

• WA017-039 Castle - unclassified
  Description

  Situated on a slight E-facing slope. Ballinamona House, a four bay, two storey over basement 18th century house that was rebuilt after a fire in 1894 is thought to have been built on the site of a castle that was built in 1488, but there is no documentation (Bence-Jones 1975, 17-18). A single wall in the basement (L c. 6m; T c. 1m) with a base-batter is thought to be from the castle. Bence-Jones, M. (1975) Burke's guide to country house. Vol. 1, Ireland. Burke's Peerage Ltd.

• WA017-040 Structure
  Description

  Marked only on the 1951 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated on a slight N-S wooded ridge. Described as a 16th century brick tower on the site of an older tower (Bence-Jones 1975, 17), it is marked on a Taylor and Skinner map surmounted by a cross (1778, 164). A square masonry plinth (dims. 6.15m x 6.15m) supports an octagonal brick tower (H c. 6m). Internally it is divided in two by a N-S masonry wall, and an entrance at N leads to a stone stairs on the E side of the wall. It is probably a folly. Bence-Jones, M.
