Halyday’s Castle, Chapel Street, Newry, Co Down

Set on a terrace near the top of a hill which slopes steeply down to Chapel Street. Ruinous shell encompassing at least three rooms, all on different levels. One room has a partly collapsed semicircular vaulted basement. Possibly multi-phase as some of the walls are of rubble granite, others of brick, all externally cement rendered. No roofs or internal wooden floors survive. All the windows have semicircular brick heads. A random rubble curtain wall c. 2.5m high surrounds the complex on three sides and runs down to the bottom of the hillside.
