I used to go there years ago when they still had the steam train and the tunnel was open, and most people would walk it, but there a large vaulted ceiling part that is under the outside space next to the Lough that I went into once with a tourch. Very few folk knew about it. I would have got access from the space in the middle of the castle where the wooden fence is. The easiest entrance was at the wee tower next to the Lough. If it was unsafe then they wouldn't allow folk to walk above it. Probably closed to the public because of the cost of public liability insurance. Wasn't as many folk claiming when I was young.
@@AustellHenderson anytime we were down we had to have a hard hat on, prove we'd insurance, why I'm reluctant to write, that's not the only way in. Last time I was down was mmm, way over 6 years at least. GOT was filming and they'd their set in the ruins of once believed to be kitchen areas. It's one of my favourite places and no one knows it there and I'd guess you're correct as to why.
The gate was always locked it's not because of covid. Anytime we went down the team had the keys to open the hall and that gate.
