What is recorded here

The precise location of a medieval castle in the village of Ballingarry that was mentioned in the Ordnance Survey Letters has not been identified. In 1840 the Ordnance Survey recorded the following; 'The inhabitants say there was formerly a castle called Castle Rag, the site of which is now occupied by a modern house in the Village of Ballingarry, immediately adjoining the Protestant Church' (OSL, 66).

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.
