The tale of the doomed cow edit
I took out this unsourced stuff, as it seems to be a bunch of baloney:
In the 1920s, a local farmer leased the Knappogue castlelands as grazing land for his cattle. One of the cows wandered into the castle, which by this time had fallen into disrepair. The cow wandered up the stone stairs, stepped out onto the crumbling wood floor, and fell to its death on the stones below. As compensation for the lost cow, ownership of the castle and its surrounding lands were granted to the farmer, who continued to graze cattle there.[citation needed]
Most of the other material was almost verbatim from the Shannon Heritage website, so I made some more changes that should give this article a more appropriate tone. Drow69 (talk) 15:44, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
