Close to the S shore of Lough Melvin. A wall (L 7m N-S; H c. 4.5m) with a base-batter on the E side has a lintelled embrasure (Wth 0.82m; H 0.7m) for a single light on the W side towards the N end at ground level. The quoins are missing but this wall formed the E wall of a castle before it was re-used as the W wall of the church (LE002-015001-) whose N and S walls are not bonded with it.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
