What is recorded here
Detached three-bay three-storey castle or tower house of c.1550 which was later adapted as a folly. The castle or tower house is constructed in rubble fieldstone. The parapet is castellated and there are bartizans to each corner. The door and windows have a mixture of pointed-arched and flat-headed openings. The castle or tower house is set within a circular walled garden close to the side of the road.
A well preserved late medieval castle or tower house. Follies invariably aped older structures but this is in fact what it pretends to be: a medieval ruin.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
