What is recorded here
Detached three-bay two-storey farmhouse, built c.1740, with additions and extensions to north-east and three-stage tower to front elevation. Now in use as outbuildings. Replacement corrugated-iron roofs. Roughcast rendered walls with Irish castellations to parapet. Square-headed window openings with red and yellow brick surrounds. Some timber sash window survive to rear elevation. Gun-loops to tower. Square-headed door opening to front elevation with tooled limestone surround comprising panelled pilasters with console brackets supporting cornice. Traceried overlight and timber panelled door. Two-storey outbuildings to rear and north-east with coursed rubble stone walls, corrugated-iron roofs and yellow brick dressings. Modern bungalow house constructed to south-east of Cloganmore House. Panelled limestone gate piers to road.
The remains of Cloganmore House retain many intriguing architectural elements. The castellated parapet and slit windows on the projecting tower to the front elevation of the farmhouse suggest a defensive house, but the scale of the structure implies otherwise. The finely tooled limestone door surround and decorative overlight are notable features and contribute to the architectural significance of the structure.
