The National Monuments Service's description
Within a walled deerpark (LF023-135-). A possible cashel (LF023-071----) lies c. 25m to the SE and another house (LF023-071001-) c. 50m to the S. This poorly preserved rectangular house (ext. dims. 10.7m E-W; 7.1m N-S) is defined by low grass-covered wall-footings (H 0.2; wall T 0.8m) and is divided into two rooms. The smaller room (int. dims. 5.4m N-S; 3m E-W) is at the W end. The original doorway is not evident but an internal doorway (Wth 0.9m) is visible at the S end of the internal dividing wall. A field system (LF023-071003-) is associated. (CUCAP, AVJ 51)
