What is recorded here

According to the OSL (Herity 2005, 42), '… there is a field called Castlefield (where) there stood formerly a Castle, the walls of which were entirely cleared away more than 30 years ago'. However, the 1st ed. (1838) of the OS 6-inch map names an unroofed, rectangular structure (est. dims. L c. 18m N-S ; Wth c. 10m) 'Site of Timahoe Castle', at the NE end of 'Castle Field'. On gently undulating pasture c. 250m S of a church (KD009-008001-) and graveyard (KD009-008002-). No visible surface traces survive. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011
