Set amid reclaimed rolling grassland. Fair views in all directions. Carrigan (1905, vol. 3, 274), describes the house as, 'The old building, properly called Sandford’s Court, stands in ruins some distance to the north of the castle [KK015-020001-]. It is built in the shape of an F, and was of considerable extent. The materials used in its erection were those of a demolished castle that stood immediately beside it, and that must have been of some pretensions, if one may judge from the many pieces of cut-stone, such as quoins, window and door casings, &c., taken therefrom and used as ordinary building stones, in the more modern edifice’. There is no visible trace of the house at ground level, however, it is likely that some remains, as well as architectural fragments from both the castle and house, are incorporated in the later buildings now occupying the location.
