What is recorded here

Castle is a tower house in Kilcraggan, County Kilkenny. It stands as a ruined castle marker rather than a complete recorded building. The absence of public detail does not remove the shape of the place: a private tower, likely tall and defensible, set within a townland that still carries its name.
