As it stood in 1400

The shape it held in its prime.

Perched on a grassy mound above a town, the ruin shows a tall, roughly rectangular stone keep remnant with a collapsed top and adjoining lower curtain-wall fragments. Walls are built of irregular grey-brown rubble stone with areas of thicker masonry at corners. The castle sits on a sloping motte with a gravel approach path and a simple wooden fence on the slope; no roofs remain today but in its prime the keep would have been a multi-storey stone tower within continuous curtain walls.
