Bailieborough Castle, 19th century country house in Bailieborough, Ireland.
The castle structure stood southwest of Castle Lough in Bailieborough Demesne, featuring enclosed grounds on the northwestern edge of the town.
William Bailie, granted lands by James I in 1610, constructed the initial fortified house and established a settlement of Scottish families by 1629.
The estate maintained strong connections to Irish politics, with several owners serving as Members of Parliament for County Cavan throughout its existence.
Visitors can explore two marked trails around the former castle grounds: the 6.5-kilometer Castle Loop and the 3.5-kilometer Lake Loop.
The Marist Brothers operated the property until 1918 when a fire damaged the building, leading to its reconstruction and final demolition in the 1940s.
