Located at the junction of Gort Na Mona Drive and Cornelscourt Hill Road. A tower house described in 1654 as a 'thatched castle' associated with the Cheever family (D'Alton 1976, 2nd ed.420). Austin Cooper in 1781 observed a fragment of the old castle, which comprised the lower arch over ground floor and part of the first floor (Price 1942, 68). Cornelscourt Shopping Centre and Car Park occupies the site.
