Ballybroder House — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Detached three-bay two-storey house, built c.1800, with lower two-storey return to rear (north) elevation having futher flat roof extension. Hipped slate roof with rendered chimneystacks, and hipped and flat roof to return. Rendered walls, render removed to front and east side elevations. Square-headed window openings with block-and-start surrounds and replacement timber windows. Round-headed door opening with cut-stone doorcase having lintel, block-and-start surround with fluted keystone, and dressed stone retaining arch. Replacement timber panelled door with overlight. Located in own grounds with medieval tower house to rear of site. Entrance to road has rendered walls and piers.

The pleasing symmetry of this house is complemented by the paired chimneystacks, and the finely carved doorcase, the latter clearly the work of a skilled craftsman, adding interest and giving the façade an decorative focus. The site is archaeologically significant as it also contains the well preserved remains of a fine tower house.
