What is recorded here
Detached single-bay single-storey former railway signal box, built at Belmont and Cloghan Railway Station on the Clara to Banagher line by the Great Southern and Western Railway and opened in 1884. No longer in use. Pyramidal roof with lead ridges. Brick base with timber walls. Timber casement windows to timber sills. Adjacent to railway station and line.
This signal box played an important role in the function at the Belmont and Cloghan railway station. Though now disused and in poor repair, the structure still stands as a reminder of its past use and the great railway era in Ireland. Yellow brick base wall and an attractive roof design give this functional structure architectural appeal.
