What is recorded here
Bagenal's Castle is a three-storey granite house in Newry, built in 1568 by Sir Nicholas Bagenal on the site of an older abbey. It vanished into a bakery and surrounding buildings until demolition in 1996 exposed the hidden walls, bringing the lost structure back into public life.
Bagenal's Castle is recorded as a castle in County Down. Its open map record supplies this location and any linked names or public references.
Bagenal's Castle in County Down was built in the late 16th century by Sir Henry Bagenal, a prominent Tudor military commander and administrator in Ireland. It is remembered as a symbol of English colonial authority during the plantation period and as the ancestral seat of the Bagenal family, who played a significant role in the military and political history of Ireland.
