CASTLE in Tullyhommon

CASTLE

What is recorded here

Castle in Tullyhommon stands in County Fermanagh, its exact age still uncertain. The official record preserves only the name and kind, leaving the chambers, defenders and days of building to imagination. A castle belongs to people before it belongs to history, so perhaps it guarded a river crossing, collected a local tax or gave a family a visible home. The missing date does not erase the function; it withholds the name of the first person who looked down from the wall and judged the land below.
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.
