Altinaghree Castle, 19th-century castle ruins near Donemana, Northern Ireland.
The stone structure of Altinaghree Castle stands on farmland between Dunnamanagh and Ballyneaner, featuring remnants of its former grandeur and surrounding stone walls.
William Ogilby constructed the castle around 1860 using Irish cut stone from Dungiven, creating a residence that remained inhabited for only thirty years.
The castle contained a grand banquet room where the Ogilby family hosted notable guests from London, Dublin, and Belfast during social gatherings.
While the castle ruins remain on private farmland without public access, visitors can observe and photograph the structure from the Dunamanagh-Claudy Road B49.
James Douglas Ogilby, son of the castle owner, disappeared for seven years before marrying a factory seamstress and relocating to Australia in 1884.
