What is recorded here

Castlefarm holds a ghost castle beside a dead church, visible only on Taylor's 1783 map. Men drained the wet earth and erased the walls, yet the layout still emerges when imagination leans over the field. Forgetting is a knife, but memory is a chisel: shape what remains instead of claiming to know everything.

A castle in ruins is shown immediately to the E of a church in ruins (KD032-013----) on Taylor's 1783 map of County Kildare, but is not recorded on any OS mapping. The area has been improved and drained in recent times, and no visible surface trace survives. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 16 October 2013
