184 | This building was situated on a conical shaped, steep, beautifully green mound, just over a rocky steep which falls to the sea. There are only five very small portions of the foundation now to be seen. There are traces of some artificial work on the sides of the hill. "There is ample evidence on record of this Castle being in exsistence in the 12th Century but we are inclined to ascribe to it an origin by many centuries earlier than that period."
