All that remains of the Tower of Deskford, are two fragments of walling of coursed rubble, 1.4m thick and 2.3m high, now overgrown with ivy, in which can be seen a doorway, and traces of the barrel-vaulting of a basement, and a newel stair at the SW corner. These fragments may represent an angle turret of a more substantial structure, possibly the courtyard mentioned by Chalmers (OSA 1791-9), which has been completely removed.
Re-surveyed at 1/2500.
Visited by OS (WDJ) 18 September 1961.
