The grounds contain the remains of a moat and farm buildings from the 19th and 20th centuries. A business consisting of a cookery school, wedding venue, event destination and B & B accommodation operates from here. Historical records of the walled nursery garden have been transferred to the archives of the National Botanic Gardens (Ireland).
A sweathouse and fulacht fiadh were identified during excavations in 2006 prior to work commencing on development of the eco-village.
All that remains of Cloughjordan Fever hospital are a few stones accessed from the west side of the eco-village.
