What is recorded here
Detached three-bay two-storey house, built c.1850, with collection of rubble limestone outbuildings to south west. Hipped natural slate roof with rendered chimneystacks. Roughcast rendered walls over rendered plinth with raised quoins to corners. Square-headed window openings with stone sills. Round-headed door opening with block-and-start door surround and replacement timber door with fanlight over. Single-storey rubble stone outbuildings to south west with pitched natural slate roofs and timber-sheeted doors. The house is set well back from main road at end of long avenue. Located to the east of Ballynacarrigy.
An attractive late-Georgian-style farm house, which retains its early form and character. The block-and-start doorcase is of artistic merit. The attractive outbuildings to the rear, constructed in local limestone, add to the setting and group value of this traditional complex. Indeed, the larger outbuilding (running roughly north-south), predates the house and may have been the original dwelling house. This complex, located in appealing mature grounds, remains an important component of the architectural heritage.
