Situated close to the N shore of Lough Ourna. An island (dims. 20.2m N-S; 17.76m E-W) delimited or retained by a ruined, narrow, drystone wall (max. H 1m) with a landing area at N. The island may be entirely of artificial construction and was probably re-fortified when the tower house (TN015-048001) was constructed.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
