What is recorded here
Terraced three-bay single-storey former coastguard station, built c. 1820, having single-bay porch with pitched slate roof to front (north-east) elevation and single-bay returns to rear (south-west) elevation with pitched artificial slate roofs. Now in use as house. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks and recent rooflights. Rendered walls. Square-headed openings throughout, having replacement timber windows and door. Rubble stone boundary walls to front and rear boundaries.
Originally built as a coastguard station, turns its back to the street to address the sea. Forms interesting group with its neighbours. Part of the maritime history of Ballycotton. Similar in elements of design to that at Ballymacoda. Retains heritage fabric such as roof slates, adding texture and depth to slightly asymmetrical elevation.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
