- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)Ballymalis Castle. Both these are in Kelly's farm Lahard Beaufort. No information can be got about these, and they are merely mentioned to help the old story that there may have been two forts in Bally malis also.Very little information can now be got about the castle itself, but over 20 years ago I collected alot of local traditions from the old people whose fore fathers had lived in the district for generations. If any credence is to be placed on these old traditions - the castle at Ballymalis was one of the great strengths of the O'Moriarty Clan. It may have been built by the Desmonds - but there is no doubt that it was occupied by the Moriarty's after the battle of Callan 1261 and until after 1600. The lands nearby were owned by them before the Anglo-Norman Invasion. Tombs & graves just outside the walls of the old ruined church at Kilbonane (one mile east of the castle) and a line of graves underneath the altar space inside in the old ruin - are still the burial places of the moriarty families who (rightly or wrongly) claim to be descendants of the old clan.(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
