It was a daughter house of a convent in Clones, and in crossing the Finn River just to the W by means of stepping stones a precious book was lost (IFC: 950, 473:). The reputed location is a small subrectangular or D-shaped area (dims c. 20m NE-SW; c. 18m NW-SE) defined by the bases of stone walls. The enclosed area is growing laurel and is connected by a laurel walk to Killycoonagh House c. 150m to the ESE. It was probably a landscape feature.
