Overgrown ruin stands in middle of large field overlooking Kilcrea friary (CO084-024002-) to W. Only ground floor survives and much of E side totally collapsed so difficult to determine original ground plan. Surviving features of late 18th/early 19th-century appearance. House demolished subsequent to visit.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 3: Mid Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
