Situated on a low rise of ground overlooking Newtown Lough 230m to E. Possibly the site of Newtown Castle. Remains consist of the grass-covered wall footings of a rectangular area (max. ext. dims. 16m N-S x 18m E-W) possibly a bawn. The interior of the possible bawn is subdivided by low grass-covered wall footings. Extending E, S & SW from this possible bawn are a series of old banks and scarps with wall footings visible in places. At SW end of the site are the grass covered wall footings of a second rectangular structure (approx. dims. 6m N-S x 11m E-W) possibly a tower house or castle.
