The National Monuments Service's description
Inishcoo House was identified as the possible location of the 'castle and bawn' built by Thomas Dutton in the early seventeenth century (Forsythe 2003). Further research indicates that the house probably dates to the 18th century (pers. comm. Patrick Boner).
