Kilronan Castle — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Detached multiple-bay single-storey former hermitage style gate lodge, built c.1860, now ruinous. Rustic river-worn stone to walls with pointed-arched openings. Roof has been removed. Remains of plaster to interior walls and fire opening. Triple-arch rustic entrance gate, built c.1860, affording access to Kilronan Castle. Comprising river-worn boulders to pointed-arched openings. Wrought-iron gates to pedestrian entrances. Single-arch bridge over stream to west of gate, with cut stone voussoirs to arch-ring.

Built to resemble a hermitage, the ruinous gate lodge retains its folly-like character, which though now overgrown, enhances the entrance to Kilronan Castle. The adjacent gates, with pointed-arched openings, make a strong visual impact on the road from Keadew to Ballyfarnon. The small but well-formed bridge retains its finely-carved voussoirs to both up and downstream sides.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
