What is recorded here
Described by Gillman (1893, 178) as 'a fortified manor-house built by the head of an important branch of the Muskerry MacCarthys, Teige of Aglish...now a bare patch of meadow'. Area now flooded due to Lee Valley Hydro-electric Scheme. Healy (1988, 14) is doubtful that Mac Carthys ever built here and suggests it was house built by Kingstons in 18th century.
