Recorded monuments

• RO022-114 Historic town
  Description

  In the SW-NE valley of the Ogulla River. The foundation of a castle by O'Conor Rua in 1406 and the Dominican friary in 1448 may have led to the development of a settlement which was burnt in 1595. From 1582 to 1601 the friary was an important English garrison, securing the road from Athlone to Sligo. Incorporation as a borrough was mooted in 1612 and accomplished in 1662 but, although a market (RO022-114002-) was established in 1617, the settlement seems not to have grown and never had any defences (RO022-114005-). (Bradley and Dunne 1988a, 112-19; Gormley 1989, 44-5) The remains consist of an earlier rath (RO022-114003-) associated with a well (RO022-114004-), the castle (RO022-114001-) and the Dominican Priory (RO022-114006-) later fortified as a tower house (RO022-114009-), with the field system (RO022-113001-) SW of the friary.
