According to Davies (1948a, 108) a plantation castle with a bawn and two flankers was built by William Hamilton on a low hill W of Skeagh Lough Lower and immediately SE of a 19th-century house and farmyard. The two flankers were incorporated into the farmyard structures, but these had been removed (ibid.). No features are visible now at ground level.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
