What is recorded here
Dromore Castle in Dromore is four storeys of sandstone tower built as a folly. Most of us can achieve nothing sitting down; somebody here required height, pointed windows and a considerable bill.
Freestanding single-bay four-storey sandstone-built folly tower, built c. 1845, now ruinous. Pointed arches to windows having ashlar surrounds at first floor. Square-headed door opening. Set within demesne.
