What is recorded here

Formerly located on the foothills of the Dublin Mountains. An aerial photograph (FSI 2, 340/339) taken in 1971 show two conjoined, raised rectangular earthworks. This is probably the site of a castle marked on Down Survey (1655-6) and referred to in the Books of Reference as a 'castle in repair' at Jobstowne' (Simington 194, 289). There is a housing estate on the site. Compiled by Geraldine Stout
