Marked on the Down Survey (1655-6) map as W of Prospect House. According to Fitzgerald (1903-5, 245) the castle stood in a field known locally as 'the old town' and the Mullaghmast stone (KD036-009----; now in the NMI DU018-412----) was found during the demolition of this castle in the 19th century: it was subsequently incorporated within the fabric of Prospect House where it acted as a threshold stone to a doorway. The exact location of this castle is unknown. See also rectangular enclosure (KD036-019----).
