A stone vault exists between 1st/2nd floors. Fireplaces are visible in N and S gables and in W wall on 1st floor, and a chimney stack survives on S gable. The garderobe exit chute is visible at the base of E wall. Surviving windows consist of simple slits and a single-light ogee-headed window in W wall. The tower is surrounded by a rectangular inner bawn (L 38m, Wth 31m), extending from S and W walls. A two-storey building survives at S end of W wall of it. An outer bawn (L 100m, Wth 95m) defined by a bank of earth and stone is visible to N, E and S.
