What is recorded here

Castle is an unmarked tower house in Aghanvally, County Longford, visible only on an early 17th-century map of Moydow barony. It may have watched a road, a field or a forgotten boundary, but no exact spot has been recovered. The castle is not lost in the sense of being imagined; it is lost in the sense of waiting to be recognised.
