The south end of the castle is a 15th or 16th century tower-house with rounded corners. It has 4 storeys, with vaults on the first and third storeys. In the 17th century, windows and a fine fireplace with initials of one of the Purcell family were inserted.

In the first half of the 17th century the Purcells added the northern part, with towers at opposite corners. It was lighted by mullioned windows, and a number of fireplaces are still retained in its walls. Col Nicholas Purcell, the last of his line, fought at the battles of the Boyne and Aughrim and also at Limerick with Sarsfield, and died here in 1722.
