The National Monuments Service's description
Situated at the corner of St. Patrick's Road and Castle Street, on the E side. Noted at the 'Castle (site of)'. The castle belonged to Richard Walsh in 1641. Known as 'Castle House' because it had been converted into a dwelling house by Robert Barry c. 1765 (Kelly 1952, 15 - 16). No visible surface trace remains.
