Sit of Old Castle — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Marked faintly as a rectangular structure (dims c. 10m N-S; c. 5m E-W) and described in italic lettering as 'Site of Old Castle' on the 1835 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, but is not marked on subsequent eds. Nor is it marked on the Down Survey (1656-8) barony map at Killeter (42) or Clovevria (52), for which see this web-page accessed on 13/04/2016. http://downsurvey.tcd.ie/down-survey-maps.php#bm=Castlerahan&c=Cavan Situated on a slight natural rise close to a river which forms part of the Cavan/Meath border. Davies (1948a, 105-6) speculated that the castle probably belonged to Sir John Elliott who was assigned the estate of Kilcronehan under the Plantation. There are no visible remains at ground level. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of revision: 13 April 2016

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.
