Belmont House, County Laois

What is recorded here

Belmont House in Aghmacart is only one storey high, but its projecting ends, angled windows and covered porch all want to be at the front. It's a bungalow attempting a family photograph: nobody will stand behind, and the windows insist this is their good side.

Detached single-storey house, c. 1860, with loggia to front, canted bay windows and advanced end bays.

From the Buildings of Ireland (National Inventory of Architectural Heritage) record 12803402
