The building, in local sandstone is in the form of a tower, with draw-bridges, [on 2 sides] with embrasures on all 4 sides.
In 1995/6 the residential floors were renovated, while the lower ground floor has remained in its original state with barrel vaults and equipment used until the 60s for grinding cereals: the old millstones are still there, worked by the underlying channel from the river.
In considering the floor area, the thickness of the walls is to be taken into account: on the lower ground floor they reach two metres.
