Westown House is an 18th-century mansion which incorporates portion of an earlier tower house and the ground floor of a possible hall (Knight of Glin, Griffin & Robinson Reprint 1889, 67; VBSCD 1993). The later may be the building referred to in the Civil survey (1654-6) as a stone house, which was partly slated (Simington 1945, 33). In 1993 the mansion and rear courtyard containing finely built out buildings were still in relatively good condition. The rear of the mansion and the outbuildings have since been demolished.
