Two stories of a small, rectangular tower house (int. dims. L 6m NE-SW; Wth 4.9m; wall T 1.2m) were incorporated (for use as stables/outbuildings) into the later Sallins Lodge, which is attached to the SW wall of the tower house and accessed through the probable original tower house doorway (H 1.8m; Wth 0.95m). The ground floor is roofed by a fine round-arched vault (H 3.4m). A doorway (Wth 0.95m; H 2m) in the NW wall giving access from the yard outside appears to be a later insertion, as does a now shelved-off doorway in the N angle (at the NW end of the NE wall) which gave access to another outbuilding beyond. Traces of a window are visible in the NW wall and there is a gently splaying window embrasure with a low sill in the SE wall.
