What is recorded here

Described in the Civil Survey (1654-6) as a 'small castle ye walls onely standinge, a thatcht house with severall other small Cottages, a garden & Oarchard with Quicsetts about them' (Simington 1931, vol. 1, 245). Walter Butler of Nodstowne is listed as proprietor in 1640 (ibid.). The present Nodstowne House, which is located 30m to S of tower house (TS052-010001-), is an 18th-century two-storey gable-ended house with bow-fronted doorway in centre of S façade. There is no evidence of the thatched house mentioned in the Civil Survey, this remains unlocated within the townland, though it is probably located near the tower house.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record TS052-010002
