What is recorded here
Knockaderry holds an unmarked castle, named only in a 16th-century document and lost to the exact ground. The omission is not a failure of knowledge; it is the place keeping its shape away from memory. A castle can withhold its room, wait for attention and reappear in the margin where certainty stops.
Castle in this townland mentioned in 16th document (Westropp 1906-7, 234); exact location of site not known.
