I have a book "Castles of Britain and Ireland" by Plantagenet Somerset Fry (1996), Abbeville Press Publishers, that contains the following description (but no picture): "CASTLE CALDWELL, Co. Fermanagh (H 0261) This very ruinous tower-house with rectangular projections on the west side is three-storeys tall. the west projections are linked to two further square two-storeyed turrets which have several gun-ports. Castle Caldwell was a plantation castle dating from about 1612."
Note : (H 0261) is the location on the Ordance Survey maps.
The following are posted from my Metacrawler websearch and have the URLs after each:
