Moynehall Ho.

Castle, unclassified

What is recorded here

Moynehall in County Cavan is a lost plantation house and bawn where a single moulded stone still marks the yard corner. That stone may be the base of a 17th-century turret, but the rest has vanished into grass, memory and time.
Davies (1948a, 115) recorded the site of a plantation 'house and bawn' at this location. All that survives is a large moulded stone at the SW corner of the yard which may possibly be the base of a 17th-century turret. Otherwise no visible remains at ground level. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
