Situated in pasture on the S bank of the River Tolka. All that remains of the castle is a kidney-shaped mound (L 6.5m, Wth 7m, H 1.6m) of collapsed rubble. There are traces of an embankment running E-W of these remains. The Civil survey (1654-6) mentions this castle at Ashtown (Simington 1945, 247).
