What is recorded here

In low-lying level terrain. There are no visible remains of 'the stone castle, called Tully' which was held by William Clifford in 1593 but was previously an O'Hara possession (O'Rorke [1889], vol. 2, 121). According to the present landowner, mortared foundations are occasionally encountered when digging in an area, which is the traditional site of the castle, and is now occupied by a potato garden and farm buildings. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005).

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

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