What is recorded here

Tullanaglug is a lost castle reduced to a low ridge of broken stone beside the River Moy. The 1838 survey still drew it as a small square building, but no wall, doorway or chamber remains for certainty. It may have been a residence, a watch post or a boundary marker for the valley. Whatever it was, the land has taken it back and leaves only a line of stones above the water.
In pasture, on a low terrace overlooking a tributary of the River Moy. A pile of loose stones (3.5m x 1m) marks the site of a 'castle' indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as a small square structure (L c. 10m). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005). Date of upload: 18 January 2008
