What is recorded here
No visible bawn wall survives, but the story is written in the land: a small tower, a hidden courtyard, and a house that depended on both. The earthwork still curves around the north and west like the ghost of a boundary, while ivy strangles the stone and the grassland swallows every angle. What is missing has not stopped the place existing; it has forced imagination to complete what the eyes refuse to hold.
In undulating grassland beside the Edenderry and Castlejordan road. Poorly preserved small rectangular ivy clad tower (OF004-010) two storeys high with base batter now partly robbed. Low circular earthwork enclosing tower house to N and W may be remains of a levelled bawn wall.
