View answerThe Office of Public Works is very conscious that Barryscourt Castle has been unavailable to visitors and the local community for the last number of years. I have asked my officials in the National Monuments division to work on a re-opening plan for the site and I would hope that progress will be made in this matter over the coming months. However, it is not possible to give a definitive date for reopening, at this stage, due to the complexity of the ongoing conservation works.
