Ballymacurly House is an example of a mid-eighteenth-century Georgian house. It retains its original form and scale with the flanking pavilions and screen walls, an architectural composition popular in this period. The pavilions and screen walls serve to elongate the building and counter the main massing of the main house. The coach house and walled garden enhance the setting of the house.
