In 1612 Robert Dillon of Cannorstown was granted 'a castle, a bawn, a mill, 20 houses' (Cal. pat. rolls Ire., Jas I, 228) in the townland of Cumerstown. In 1682 Sir Henry Piers of Tristernagh wrote that at the E end of Lough Lene there 'issueth out another considerable stream which in one quarter of a mile turneth a mill at Cummestown' (Vallancey 1786, 10). Depicted on OS 6-inch map probably the result of the levelling of the watercourse or tail race of the Corn Mill depicted on the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch map. This post medieval corn mill may have been located on site of the medieval mill.

H 2m), with pieces of limestone masonry bonded with mortar along the perimeter of the mound at W & SSE marks the site of this castle depicted on the 1659 Down Survey map of St. Mary's parish (NLI MS 723-4). Two sub-rectangular shaped depressions (dims 7.8m N-S; 3.5m E-W; 4.8m N-S; 5.8m E-W) are visible on the surface of the mound. The land around the mound shows traces of old cultivation ridges running roughly E-W. There are faint indications of earthworks possibly belonging to a bawn wall to N of mound which are visible on Digital Globe aerial photograph taken November 2011.
