Rockfleet Castle is a tower house near Newport. It was built in the mid-sixteenth century, and is most famously associated with Gráinne Ní Mháille (Grace O'Malley), the 'pirate queen' and chieftain of the Clan O’Malley. Local legend has it that treasure once housed in the castle is now buried in an unknown location somewhere in the surrounding fields. If found, the individual who exhumed it is said to be met by the Headless Horseman resulting in dire consequences.
