The National Monuments Service's description
There is a reference to a castle at Lung by J. O'Donovan (O'Flanagan 1933, 112). From O'Donovan's description and sketch this would seem to be in the townland of Cross on sheet 8, rather than the townland of Lung. A castle has not been identified at either location.
