What is recorded here
Castle, unclassified in Templehill: A castle that never appeared on any map, yet every cartographer drew it from memory. It has no walls, no gate, no room. It occupies the space between one fact and the next, feeding on the ambiguity that refuses to resolve.
A site of a caste, The Down Survey (1655-6) map shows a castle in the immediate area of Seapoint Station. Not precisley located.
