The National Monuments Service's description

In the S half of Carrownadargny cashel (SL035-008001-). The remains of a three-roomed structure which utilises the curving cashel wall as its S boundary and an E-W stone wall (H 0.4m) as its N boundary. Two N-S orientated stone walls (H 0.3m-0.4m) form the internal cross walls. The rooms (numbered 1-3 from W to E) measure as follows: Room 1: 7m N-S; 4.2m E-W, Room 2: 10.5 N-S; 3.6m E-W, Room 3: 7.2 N-S; 7.5m E-W. Entrance (Wth 1.6m) into Room 3 in N wall. The interiors of the rooms are featureless apart from a small dump of rubble in NE corner of Room 3.
