Circular tower, of 2 storeys. Built of local rubble masonry with rough arched recessed windows and doorway to SW; slightly offset parapet with slate-capped castellations.
Interior not inspected at the time of the survey, but the previous listing description records a central circular newel post to spiral pine staircase.
Listed as a well-preserved early C18 tower in a Gothic style which matches several other buildings along the Anglesey coast between Cadnant and Beaumaris; an integral component part of planned gardens within the grounds of an extensive estate.
