What is recorded here

Detached six-bay single-storey farmhouse, built c.1800, with projecting porch and two-bays in use as outbuilding. Hipped thatched roof with red brick chimneystack. Rendered walls. Timber sash windows. Four-bay single-storey outbuilding attached to the north, with corrugated-iron roof. Rubble-stone boundary walls.
This farmhouse is representative of the vernacular tradition in Ireland. The setting of the farmhouse, perpendicular to the road, and the absence of windows in the rear elevation, are features that are often associated with this tradition. The farmhouse retains many interesting materials and features, such as the timber sash windows, internal shutters and related outbuildings.
