  1. There is an old castle in Nolans of Kellistown. It was built about 300 years ago. It was built of stone and clay. There are three banks about it, and there is about five feet of water in them. A man lived in this, and it was he who put the name "The Castle Field", on this field. The banks were put there so that the animals would not break the walls.
