On top of a prominent rise in an undulating landscape. The McClancy castle Duncarbry, probably a tower house (LE001-032----) and bawn, is now a rectangular grass-covered platform (dims 28m E-W; 17m N-S) defined by a collapsed wall (Wth 2m; H 0.45m generally to 2.25m at S) around the perimeter. The remains of a rectangular structure form a mound, probably the tower house, at the NE angle. No wall-facing or architectural features are visible.
