What is recorded here

O'Doherty's Keep stands as a late medieval tower house in County Donegal, built to control the fording point where the River Crana meets Lough Swilly. The O'Doherty clan treated the stone as a living instrument of power, repairing and fortifying it through the turbulent early 1600s. Cahir O'Doherty and his kin turned the keep into a stage for rebellion and loyalty, while the surrounding water gave the town salmon and identity.
