- Wardtown Castle was last occupied by a man named Harry Likley about twenty five years ago. A man named Ward first owned it, and because his daughters were drowned in lough Na mBean Fionn he thought there was bad luck in it. He sold the castle to Shiel's for one half crown. Mr. Shiel's sold it to Foillard and he sold to Harry Likley. Many people say that they often heard music about it.
