- There is a castle in Culclare and it is in Jim Duffy's land. It is called "Caisleán". There are two parts in it. It is said that there was a woman seen in it and that a priest hunted her from the road up to "Caisleán". The people of the house were afraid to light the lamp or open the door at night-time.
