- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)There was a narrow street on each side of the castle.
Some of the old people say that Edward Bruce stayed a night in Kells castle.
In 1905 or 1906 there was a Feis held in Kells, and on that occasion the stocks and keys of the castle were exhibited in the Kells Convent Schools.
In latter years the castle was used as a prison.
Mr. Rowley of Maperath has a lock of the stocks, and another gentleman, whose name we are not at liberty to tell, has a sketch of the castle. - Kells Castle was built with small rough field stones, three storeys high, and in the latter years of its existence when it became a ruin there was a tree growing on its roof. It was a very big structure with a door in front with three steps leading up to it. Inside there was a spiral staircase leading to the upper storey. The stocks consisted of a kind of metal work contrivance on the bars of which the prisoner was compelled to sit with his legs through them, but with the arms free.
