Circular grass-covered area (diam. 50.8m N-S; 46.4m E-W) defined by an earthen bank with some bushes (Wth 6.5-9m; int. H 0.25m at N to 1.55m at S; ext. H 1.25m at N to 2.1m at S) which has been quarried WNW-NNW and removed NE-E. There is no visible fosse, but the entrance (Wth 3.4m) is at SE. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010

Situated on the SW-facing slope of a NW-SE ridge, c. 150m from a SE-NW section of the River Suck which lies to the SW. This is an L-shaped structure of two wings, but very little survives of the NE and NW wings which meet at the S angle, apart from the foundations of walls (T 0.7-0.8m). The NE gable of two-storeys with an attic and robbed fireplaces, is all that remains of this wing (int. dims 26.5m NE-SW; 7.5m NW-SE). Outside the gable is a cellar with a barrel-vault (int. dims 10.5m NW-SE; 2.2m NE-SW; H 3.8m) entered at the SE. Of the NW wing (int. dims 23m NW-SE; 7.5m NE-SW), a fragment of the NW gable, with a gun-loop survives, and at the S angle where both wings meet is a circular tower with four gun-loops and a window at the ground floor. The house could be occupying the S angle of a bawn (RO041-031002-) (dims c. 55m NE-SW; c. 30m NW-SE) visible as slight grass-covered wall-footings, with a grass-covered roadway (RO041-031005-) (Wth 6.7m) running ESE from its E angle (L 66m) defined by a stone spread at N and a scarp (max.

On the flood-plain c. 100m SW of the house is a rectangular enclosure (RO041-031004-) (dims 47m NW-SE; 25.4m NE-SW) defined by a shallow fosse or silted drain (Wth c. 2.3-3m; D 0.1m).

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
