Leitra Castle

Situated on a rise of ground on natural island surrounded by bog. Small two storey square shaped house (6.5m N-S; 6.2m E-W; wall T 0.9m) built with roughly coursed limestone rubble with wooden floor carried in small rectangular joists. Access by a destroyed flat headed door at the centre of E wall which gives access to the ground floor which is lit by two gun loops in the W wall and a destroyed window at E end of N wall. Possible wooden stairs located against S wall because of lack of features indicating floor joists . The first floor is well lit by four large windows one in each wall with a fireplace built into the NE angle of the room with rectangular chimney stack above. No dressed stone visible. Probably 17th-century in date with possible destroyed bawn to the E of the building.
