What is recorded here
Oldglass still hides a castle nobody has pinned to the ground. The Down Survey marked it in 1654, but the marble wall of facts stops short of naming its rooms. Perhaps it was a kitchen, a chapel or a bedroom for someone who refused to leave the world unchanged.
Unlocated castle within townland that is indicated on Down Survey (1654-7) map (NLI, MS 720).
