Large rectangular chimney stack atop main S gable and on both circular towers; photo in Coleman (1915, facing 158) shows similar stack atop N gable, now fallen. Each stack fed by fireplaces on each floor; most missing lintel and breast. Window opes in circular towers smaller than main block; each tower has a number of gun loops at ground level. Ruinous ancillary buildings to N; W wall in line with W wall of house, extending E where section still roofed (probably a re-roofing in 18th/19th century). Two large chimney stacks, similar to those on house, rise from E gable of roofed section and in NW corner, latter fed by large fireplace with remains of circular, domed bread oven on N side; probably part of kitchen for house.
