The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a slight S and W-facing slope and inside the W edge of the bawn (WX039-024001-). This is a house of two storeys (int. dims: c. 22m N-S; 5.57m E-W) but only the S gable with a firplace projecting on the outer face of the wall and part of the W wall, also with a gable and projecting fireplace, survive. No other features are present, but the house is probably 17th century in date. The parish church of Ballybrazil (WX039-023001-) is c. 200m to the NNE.
