Is Narrow Water Castle a Water castle, meaning: Is it surrounded by water-ditches or is it just at the bank of the river and the other 3 sides are not protected by water? In the latter case I will take Narrow Water Castle out of the article Water castle. Those of you, who have seen the castle: Please answer. --Rheinländer 09:48, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's a castle at the Narrow Water of Carlingford Lough, as I understand it. There's also a tower on the opposite shore of the narrows, to control passage in the lough. Certainly when I visited, Narrow Water Castle was at the side of the lough-side road, between the road and the shore of the lough. I walked round the exterior landside wall - it was not moated (but whether it may have been moated in the past, I don't know). Man vyi 13:56, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Man vyi! The Castle is not a typical water castle, so I will take it out of the article water castle. There is Motte on the map only a few hundred meters away from the castle. --Rheinländer 10:15, 7 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Narrow Water Keep

This whole page is completely inaccurate. This article is about 'Narrow water Keep'. Narrow water castle is actually a different building on the other side of the dual carriageway, the current residence of the Hall family which hosts music concerts, art shows and horse riding competitions. Please ammend.

Narrow Water Castle → Narrow Water Keep, Warrenpoint – Narrow Water Castle is a completely different site. This article is clearly about the building known as the Narrow Water Keep Lisburn lovely (talk) 18:43, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As per WP:COMMONNAME it should be renamed.

Oppose. "Narrow Water Keep" returns only 9 hits on Google Books, compared to 1680 for "Narrow Water Castle". The current name appears to be the WP:COMMONNNAME.--Cúchullain ^t/c 18:07, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The other "Narrow Water Castle" is a 19th Century stately home that now offers tourist accomodation, see Warrenpoint#Places of interest. It's probably not notable, so the question is simply which is the common name for the older building. Andrewa (talk) 08:39, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
