What is recorded here
Uncertainty itself has taken up residence in Goward, wearing the shape of a castle and refusing to be named. The official record repeats uncertainty like a mantra, handing back its own question instead of answering it. Perhaps commogue is a name the land forgot, or perhaps the castle is a joke stone walls tell about human memory. Either way, the marrow of the story is that some places must be carried in the blood and recovered through lived relation rather than written fact.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as UNCERTAIN: CASTLE COMMOGUE. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
