The National Monuments Service's description

According to the Civil Survey (1654-6) 'The sd lands hath on it a Bawne & a thatcht house' which in 1640 was in the proprietorship of 'Benet Sall of Cashell Alderman Irish Papist' (Simington 1931, vol. 1, 232). In a farmyard in undulating grassland, there is a house located in what appears to be the former NE angle of the bawn (TS069-071001-). The one-storey four-bay house (wall T 0.6-0.65m), which is aligned N-S, has been heavily modernised. The thickness of its walls is consistent with the thickness of the possible bawn wall.
