Ballyclogh House

Detached three-bay two-storey double-pile house, built c. 1810. Pitched slate roof having rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Rendered walls with render quoins. Square-headed openings having limestone sills and one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows. Square-headed openings to rear (north) elevation, some with six-over-six pane timber sliding sash windows, some having replacement uPVC windows. Round-headed opening with replacement uPVC door and overlight. Camber-headed opening to rear elevation having glazed overlight over timber battened door. Six-bay single-storey outbuilding to east with pitched slate roof and cast-iron rainwater goods. Roughcast rendered walls. Square-headed openings, some with timber battened half-doors. Square-headed window opening having limestone sill. Two-bay single-storey outbuilding to north with pitched asbestos roof. Roughcast rendered walls. Square-headed openings having timber battened half-doors. Pair of square-profile ashlar limestone piers to south with cut limestone caps, rusticated plinths and sweeping ashlar limestone walls having limestone copings and rusticated plinths terminating in second pair of square-profile piers.

This modest house retains much of its original form and attendant outbuildings to rear. The house is indicative of the lasting popularity of the simple three-bay two-storey domestic form, but is distinguished by its double-pile form. Features such as the sash windows help conserve the original appearance of the structure, whilst the finely crafted limestone piers represent high quality craftsmanship and design, which enhance the composition of the site.
