The most recent programme of conservation work at Doe Castle involved the conservation of the tower. This work was carried out in the period 1996 to 2001 and was undertaken to provide a suitable indoor location on the site for the important McSweeney grave slab. All works undertaken in the intervening period have been of a routine maintenance nature. There are no plans at present to re-roof the great hall.
