A few archaeological remains of the medieval stone castle of Killare are traceable in the fields northeast of the ringfort (rath), including rectangular foundations and corners of the medieval structures. This stone castle replaced an earlier, motte-and-bailey castle located to its east but destroyed in 1187.
