What is recorded here

Murlough Upper once held a castle now destroyed, leaving behind only the memory of stones that stood during the late medieval period. The building has vanished completely, yet the empty ground still carries the shape of what was lost. Perhaps rooms warmed by fire, doors opened for visitors, and windows watched the land before destruction took them. What remains is absence, but absence can still speak when someone listens.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CASTLE (destroyed). Recorded period: LATE-MED. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
