What is recorded here
Tully Castle in County Fermanagh is a post-medieval castle, bawn and village site dating to the seventeenth century. It stands under State Care, holding the shape of a fortified household and the ordinary life that clustered around it. The land may have echoed with argument, trade or fear during turbulent years, while the stones kept quiet.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CASTLE, BAWN & VILLAGE SITE: TULLY CASTLE. Recorded period: POST-MED; C17TH. Recorded protection: State Care. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Tully Castle was built in the 17th century, likely by a local Gaelic or Anglo-Irish family, and is remembered as an example of post-medieval defensive architecture in Northern Ireland. Its preservation under State Care highlights its historical and archaeological significance.
