The National Monuments Service's description
In flat terrain, presently in a farmyard with farm buildings running E from the E wall of the tower house. The bawn is associated with a late 16th/early 17th-century tower house (TS079-016----). There is a possible bawn wall c. 16m W of the tower house, running N-S. It is composed of a mixture of sandstone and limestone rubble, roughly coursed (L c. 20m; H 2.7m) and has a very slight base-batter on its W (external) face and is leaning to the E.
