About Tully Castle
Sir John Hume, a Scottish planter, had Tully Castle built early in the 17th century as a strong house inside a walled bawn. On Christmas Eve 1641, during the rising, Rory Maguire’s men found mostly women and children there; Lady Mary Hume gave the house up on a promise of safe passage, yet on Christmas Day the people sheltering inside were killed. The house was burned and the Humes never returned. Its walls still stand on Tully Point above the lough, with restored gardens and an interactive exhibition in a traditional cottage nearby. The site has its own boat jetty, so this is an easy stop from the water: there are toilets, a picnic area and the waymarked Tully Castle Walk, which loops past the cottage and along the lough shore. Entry is free, although works occasionally close the site; check before a special trip.
