Identified as a 'Tower' on the 1st (1839-40) ed. OS 6-inch map and 'Tower (in Ruins) on the 2nd (1903) ed. This is an 18th/19th-century folly (ext. dims. 4.1m x 4m; int. dims. 2.45m x 2.4m) which is incorporated into and contemporary with the stone walled field boundary which runs NNE-SSW from the NE and SW face of the tower. It was at least three storeys high, though it only survives to midway of the second-floor level. It had a doorway in the NE wall at ground level and has large pointed window openings. It is not related to the tower house (KK033-027001-) which lies 135m to the NE. Another tower (KK033-027003-), probably contemporary with this one, was located 76m E of the tower house but only some overgrown stones (max. H 0.5m) survive.
