Situated in pasture which is surrounded by low-lying marshy ground to SE, S and W and which is overlooked by a low rise to N. Dundonnell Castle site (WM025-010----) stands in N quadrant of a subrectangular-shaped enclosure (approx. dims. 67m NW-SE x 62m NNE-SSW) defined by the remains of a substantial bank and fosse to NW, NE and SE and by a drain to SW. The interior is uneven with slight rises, low banks and the scant remains of some wall footings. The area to the N, E and SE is traversed by a series of banks and ditches which form a complex of enclosures adjoining the castle site. The remains of a possible medieval road (WM025-010002-) or sunken way is visible to NE.
