The National Monuments Service's description
Davies (1948a, 115) recorded the site of a plantation 'house and bawn' at this location. All that survives is a large moulded stone at the SW corner of the yard which may possibly be the base of a 17th-century turret. Otherwise there are no visible remains at ground level. The bawn may have been N of the house.
