The National Monuments Service's description
Bradley et al (1986 vol. 4, 386), mention that a levy was imposed on the county in 1467-8 to build a castle at Kilcullen Bridge. The precise location of this castle is unknown, and the absence of other historic or cartographic references to it suggests it may never have been built?
