As stated by the RCAHMS, only the S wall of the keep and a portion of the wing remain standing to a height of some 8m. Although it is stated that the tower existed in the 13th century, it resembles more the normal rectangular keep erected in the 15th - 16th century. Owing to deeply drifting snow the enclosures mentioned above were not traceable.
