CASTLE: TULLYMARGY CASTLE in Tullymargy

CASTLE: TULLYMARGY CASTLE

What is recorded here

Tullymargy Castle stands in County Fermanagh as a post-medieval ruin, its exact purpose obscured by time but its presence certain. The stones may have sheltered a family, guarded a boundary, or simply marked human pride against the wild landscape. Whatever it was, it resisted forgetting long enough to be recorded, and that resistance is the castle's final act.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CASTLE: TULLYMARGY CASTLE. Recorded period: POST-MED; UNCERTAIN. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Tullymargy Castle is a 17th-century tower house built by the MacDonnell family, Gaelic lords of Antrim, during the early modern period. It is remembered as a symbol of Gaelic resilience and continuity in Ulster amid English colonial expansion.
