The NE corner tower (ext. diam. 4.3m; wall T 0.8m) of the bawn survives two storeys high with gun loops at both levels and wall-walk at roof level. The SE tower of the bawn has the same dimensions. Only the E part of the original bawn wall survives with no evidence of original bawn to the S and W. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Offaly' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997).
