Mocorha Castle is a ruined tower house in County Mayo, Ireland. Its western wall still holds a splayed window set within an arched recess, shaped for defence rather than display. By 1574 the castle belonged to Brian boy MacDonnell of the prominent MacDonnell family. Today only the ground floor remains, divided into two rooms and filled with rubble beneath the remnants of a vaulted stone ceiling.
