What is recorded here
Castle Dillon House rises from Turcarra as a lost seventeenth-century shadow, its rath and bawn still drawing breath though no marker exists to prove the shape. The absence does not diminish the place; it sharpens the memory of hands that built walls against rain and time. What is missing on the page may be present in the soil, waiting for a body to remember the layout before intelligence inventes it again.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH & BAWN: CASTLE DILLON HOUSE (unlocated). Recorded period: C17TH; E.CHRIST.. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
