The National Monuments Service's description
According to an inquisition held in New Ross on October 19th 1631 Arthur Keating, the son of Oliver Keating, possessed a court, which may have been a bawn of the castle (WX046-041001-) at Kilcowan (Jeffrey 1979, 78-9). Its location is not known, but it would be close to the castle.
