As it stood in 1300
The shape it held in its prime.
Rectangular medieval hall-house of roughly 54 by 22 feet, the ruins show thick rubble walls of mixed granite and sandstone up to 36 feet high, with a single tall pointed-arched window in the wall and a projecting square tower at one corner. A narrow garderobe turret projects from the west side. The south courtyard is built around a steep granite outcrop. No roofs remain; wall faces are rough-faced masonry of warm brown and grey tones, with rubble infill and surviving doorway openings.
