The National Monuments Service's description
In level pasture within Ardtully Demesne, just W of the confluence of the Owbeg and Roughty Rivers. Two towers are indicated on the 1846 OS 6-inch map immediately W and c. 10m to the NE of Ardtully House, respectively. A further two towers are indicated and named 'Ruins of Towers' on the 1846 OS 6-inch map, on the riverbank c. 45m to the SSE and c. 45m S of the house, respectively; the two westernmost towers appear to be connected by a wall running NW-SE. The towers are not visible at ground level. See KE094-002002-.
