Tehe castles were the residences of kings, and the steeples we are told, were connected with the churches and monasteries.The castle nearest to us is Cullohill castle, which is partially ruined. It was the stronghold of the Mac Giolla Padraic's of Upper Ossory. It is built of limestone and grouting on solid rock. It is situated about 500 yards away from the village, and it stands in a south west angle of a circular courtyard about 50 perches in area, surrounded by thick loop holed walls, about 12 feet high.
