The house is a detached nine-bay three-story house over basement, built c.1730, with later five-bay two-storey U-plan wing to south-west. The grounds also include an impressive garden with a fountain, which makes Roscrea Castle a very pleasant destination for a day out. There is also a nearby restored mill displaying St Crรณnรกnโ€™s high cross and pillar stone.
