On the SE bank of the NE-SW Ballyglass stream around castle (RO047-058001-). This is a wedge-shaped area (dims c. 75m N-S; c. 30m E-W at N; c. 70m E-W at S). It is defined by a spread of stone and wall footings except at the N, and two towers can tentatively be identified, at the NW angle and at the centre of the S wall. An out-turned entrance and outer causeway (L 10m; Wth 3.5m) on the E wall leads to an outer wedge-shaped ward (dims c. 90m E-W; c. 80m N-S) which might not have been completed and is largely removed. The outer ward is defined by less substantial walls on the SE and NE sides backing onto the stream at W, and two rectangular towers can be identified, on the SE wall and at the E angle.
There are four rectangular buildings (RO047-058023-; RO047-058024-; RO047-058025-; RO047-058026-) within the inner bawn.
