In Callan, c. 40m N of the bailey which lies E of the motte (KK026-010009-). A millrace associated with a watermill (KK026-010021-) runs E-W c. 9m to the N.
A geophysical and topographical survey of the motte and bailey and surrounding area was carried out in 2002 (Clutterbuck et al. 2006, 7-28). This revealed several anomalies including a possible furnace (Wth c. 5m), interpreted as a forge, and a possible kiln (KK026-010085-) c. 20m to the SE (ibid. 12-21, 24).
