What is recorded here

A land grant to William Mc Brian Murtagh in 1619 included ‘the castle and fields of Knockivagan’ (Cal. pat. rolls Ire., Jas I, 450). The precise location of the castle has not been identified and it is possible that Ballyknock Castle (LF018-060001-) in the adjoining townland to the S may be it.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
