As it stood in 1580
The shape it held in its prime.
A 16th-century rectangular stone tower house rising from the rocky east coast of Clare Island, standing several storeys high with narrow slit windows punctuating the masonry. Two projecting circular corner bartizans break the roofline; the tower's first-floor contains the main living room with direct access into the bartizans and to a built-in garderobe. Walls are exposed stone; the structure is fully roofed and complete in its prime, sitting close to the shoreline.
