What is recorded here

Castle in Collinstown is a vanished castle whose stones may reappear in a nearby house wall. It disappeared under a working field, leaving behind a lane, a map name and a grandmother’s memory.

Named on Duncan's map (1821) as 'Castle in ruins'. Site accessible from laneway off Skerries-Lusk road. Located in low-lying field under tillage. Owner's grandmother talked of the castle in the 'Lane field'. Suggestion that the house (constructed in the early 19th century) stables and wall which incorporate large stones may have re-used stones from the castle. No visible surface remains.
