Remains of Dally Castle
Image: © Oliver Dixon Taken: 14 Feb 2017
Possibly dating from the 13th century, originally a "hall house", converted to a "tower house" in the 14th century. Never a "castle" in the proper sense of the word. The effect is a little spoiled by the intrusion of an electricity transmission pole.
