Castle in ruins — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Cregmore rises on a high rocky ridge above a small turlough, preserving the battered bones of a rectangular tower and two nested bawns. Its basement vault still hunches beneath rubble, while faint spiral stair marks cling to the southwest corner like a forgotten invitation. The castle may have watched water, road and sky for generations before ruin took it, but the stones still hold the shape of that vigilance.

On high rocky area with small turlough to E. Poorly preserved remains of rectangular tower (8.5m N-S; 8m E-W), constructed of roughly coursed masonry. SW angle with well-dressed quoins survives (H 2.5m), with slight returns to S and W. Batter on S wall. Barrel vaulted basement is badly damaged and contains much rubble infill. Slight traces of spiral stairs remain in SW corner. Tower; stands at E end of small bawn (15m X 15m); enclosed by larger bawn (62m N-S; 52m E-W) containing corner tower (H 2m) in NE.
