What is recorded here

Farmyard to rear of Clonamully House, erected c.1870, comprising L-plan outbuilding having seven-bay two-storey block to north-west and three-bay block to south-west. Pitched corrugated-iron roof, with cast-iron rainwater goods. Rock-faced rusticated limestone walls to north-west block, and coursed rubble limestone walls to south-west. Raised crenellated wall to rear of north-west elevation of north-west block, with cut sandstone quoins. Square-headed window openings having metal-framed windows to first floor. Gauged tooled sandstone surrounds to square-headed openings to ground floor. Timber battened doors and timber-framed windows to openings. Gauged tooled sandstone three-centred-arch openings, some having timber battened doors. Square-headed window openings to north-east elevation of outbuilding with tooled sandstone surrounds, sills, hood-mouldings and paired timber-framed pointed windows. Carved robin to hood-moulding to ground floor. Rubble stone wall enclosing yard, recent gateway flanked by round-plan stone piers having render capping and ball finials.
This farmyard is notable for the quality of the L-plan outbuilding that displays good masonry details and a variety of openings. The hood-mouldings to the gable reflects the design of the house, and the carving of a robin is a pleasantly surprising artistic embellishment. The retention of pointed-arch window frames adds considerably to the interest of the building. Together with the house this farmyard forms a notable group in the local landscape.
