There is no paper file in the ASI archive for this monument. Located on the Westmeath RMP map within a wooded part of Ballynagall demesne. It is not represented on either the first edition or current edition OS 6-inch maps. Listed in the SMR (1985) as 'Tower (site of)' and in the RMP (1996) as 'Tower'. No surface remains visible of any tower or structure on Digital Globe orthoimage taken between 2011-13. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 16 August 2023

Situated on flat grassland, surrounded by gently undulating land and overlooked by a nearby ridge to the W. A circular shaped area (approx. diam. 38m NE-SW; 39m NE-SW) enclosed by two earthen banks and a wide deep intervening fosse. The inner bank is substantial (max. H 1m), and has several disturbance gaps. There is a possible entrance gap at SE. The fosse is almost completely filled up from N-E-SSE, and the outer bank is very slight, only visible from S-W-N. See attached profile of monument surveyed and drawn by the ASI. Compiled by: Frank Coyne and Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 9 March 2018
- WM012-169: Castle - unclassified, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CWM012-169----. The precise location of Ballynagall Castle has not been identified. The castle is depicted on the 1655-9 Down Survey map of Portnashangan parish (NLI, MS 723-4) where it is shown standing close to the townland boundary with Brackcastle now Brockagh. The terrier of this parish map recorded that 'There are Scituate in it the Castles of Loughanstowne (WM012-117001-), Ballenegall'. The terrier of this parish map recorded that in 1641 Ballynagall Castle stood on the lands belonging to 'Richard Tirrell' who is listed as an 'Irish papist'. The castle is not depicted on any edition of the OS 6-inch maps. There is no evidence to suggest that the ruins of Ballynagall House were built on the site of the medieval castle. Ballynagall House was built in 1808 for James Gibbons and according to local tradition it was built on the site of an 18th century house Castle Reynell and reused fabric from this castle in the construction of the 19th century house. In 1720 Arthur Reynell High Sheriff of Co. Westmeath purchased this estate from which the house received its name (Burke 1847, 1112). It is not clear if Castle Reynell was a new house built on the site of the medieval castle of Ballynagall or whether it was the medieval castle that was renamed Castle Reynell.
