Situated on a very gentle S-facing slope. No visible trace of the house built by Lord Stafford before 1637, the foundations of which survived into the 1940s (Price 1946, 91). The site is now occupied by farm buildings, and is known locally as 'Black Tom's Cellars'.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wicklow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
