Semi-detached three-bay two-storey house over basement, built c. 1860, having gabled end-bay to west and gabled central porch. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks. Render eaves course to gabled end-bay. Painted roughcast rendered walls with render continuous sill course having foliate label stops to corners of gable. Camber-headed openings, all with replacement uPVC windows and limestone sills. Round-headed openings to first floor, gabled end-bay, render hood moulding with ornate label stops. Render surrounds with ornate label stops to ground floor windows. Round-headed opening having render surround with foliate consoles, overlight and replacement uPVC door. Painted rendered boundary walls with square-profile piers and single-leaf cast-iron gate.
The house is part of a group of late nineteenth century housing which sprung up in this area following the arrival of the railway and the establishment of Youghal as a fashionable sea side resort. The decorative foliate plaques add artistic interest to the house, while the paired window arrangement is a motif which is found throughout the group.

WatervilleHouse · 12 yd

Explorer Tom Waterville is sitting on Front Strand with decorative plaques that look like they were made by a very fancy leaf enthusiast. Have a peek because it’s part of a group that thinks being fashionable started with a railway track.

SummervilleHouse · 22 yd

Explorer Tom Summerville is the twin to Springville, just standing on the other side of the street being equally grand. It’s got a portico and all the trimmings from back when Youghal was the in-place.

MaryvilleHouse · 27 yd

Explorer Tom Maryville in Williamstown went all fancy when the railway arrived, like a proud peacock. If it rains, I hope the priest who lost that big bet there gets soaked. If it rains, he pays!

SpringvilleHouse · 33 yd

Explorer Tom Springville is sitting by the sea because Youghal went fancy when the railway came. It’s a late nineteenth-century survivor, keeping its form and character while you take photos.

Wayside shrine441 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Wayside shrine in County Cork is practically invisible to the record books. I suspect it’s hiding from the council or something. Keep an eye out for anything weird near it.

Milestone in SummerfieldMilestone · 631 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Milestone in Summerfield has no information uploaded yet, which is cheeky for a stone that was supposed to mark distance. So it’s just a mystery rock for now. If you find it, take a selfie and tell me if it looks lonely.

Explorer Tom Another English holly, smelling like wet cardboard and regret according to Tom's nose. It says it only grows on land that was once haunted by bad decisions. Dare you to say hello out loud, see if it flinches.

European Yew1.2 mi

Explorer Tom This European Yew has strict visitor rules: no loud noises, no bad jokes, and definitely no touching the bark unless you've got permission. I probably didn't. Go on, count the branches and get it wrong like I did.
