What is recorded here

Killurin still hides an unclassified castle, named but never pinned to a single stone. The townland may have worn a tower, a ditch or a ruined room that no one has troubled to measure. Forgetting is not the same as disappearance; it is only a room with the lights turned off.

Unlocated castle within the townland of Killurin (Cooke 1875, 25; O'Flanagan 1933, vol. 2, 6; Vol. 1, 43; Comerford 1883, 197). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Offaly' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 23 May 2011
