What is recorded here
Inishcreenry still carries the name Castle, though no wall or tower remains visible to judge the claim. The land itself may have worn the shape of a fortress before memory failed it. Perhaps a tower stood there in a time when people still believed stone could hold back the dark. If so, the earth has already taken back what it wanted.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CASTLE. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. 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.
