What is recorded here
Keiltanes Castle is a lost stone house in County Limerick, Ireland, named in a 1621 document but never placed on a modern map. It may have stood as a small defensive residence or a rural administrative center, its walls built to withstand both weather and human conflict. The absence of a visible ruin does not erase the castle; it simply returns the building to the landscape that first shaped it.
Exact location of 'Keiltanes Castle, stone house, meussage etc.', which are mentioned in document dated 1621 (Westropp 1906-7, 215), is not known.
