In pastureland overlooking a turlough to the SW and on the SW side of a byroad through a small house cluster. Named 'Castle Gar (in ruins)' on the 1838 edition of the OS 6-inch map but evidently demolished by the time of the 1933 edition, when the words 'Site of' are appended. No visible surface trace survives. Dunkellin Castle (GA103-120002-) lies c. 475m to the SE. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 13 September 2021
