MenuNarrow Water Castle, Down
Narrow Water Castle is a 16th-century tower hose and bawn, located on the north bank of the Clanrye (Newry) River, in the townland of Narrow Water, near the town of Warrenpoint, County Down. The fortification was built in the 1560s for an English garrison, but later that century passed into the hands of the Magennis family. The castle was damaged during the Irish Rebellion of 1641, and sold to the Hall family in the 1670s. It was occupied by the Hall family until they built an Elizabethan revival style mansion nearby in the early 19th century. The monument is in the care of the Department for Communities. The monument is within the council area of Newry, Mourne and Down.
