The National Monuments Service's description
Immediately N of the tower house (TS054-037002-), house (TS054-037003-) and bawn (TS054-037001-) there is a rectangular field of rock outcrop which is shown on the first ed. OS 6-inch map as a 'Fair Green'. In this field are the grass-covered wall-footings of at least four possible houses (TS054-037004-; TS054-037005-; TS054-037018- and TS054-037019-) with central road (TS054-037009-) and two enclosures (TS054-037007-; TS054-037008-). Large rectangular house 2m to N. N of this field the fair green continued but was intersected by a modern road running SW-NE. The field to the N appears to be a continuation of the settlement with a castle (TS054-037010-); bawn (TS054-037011-) and two associated buildings (TS054-037-012-; TS054-037013-) and a house (TS054-037014-) and bawn (TS054-037015-) and two associated buildings (TS054-037016-; TS054-037017-).
