What is recorded here
Boazio drew a castle in Finned before men stopped remembering it. The line still touches stone, but the chamber has drowned into soil and forgetting. What the castle guarded is no longer spoken.
A castle is marked in Finned townland on a 16th-century map drawn by Baptista Boazio. The exact location is unknown.
