What is recorded here
Detached three-bay single-storey farmhouse, built c.1700, with single-bay addition to west. Located perpendicular to the road within a farm yard with outbuildings to east and south. Corrugated-iron roof, slate to additional bay, with rendered chimneystack. Roughcast rendered walls. Square-headed window openings with concrete sills and timber sash windows. Square-headed door opening with timber battened door. Site enclosed behind rendered walls and piers and a wrought-iron pedestrian gate.
Situated perpendicular to the road, this small farmhouse, its outbuildings enclosing a yard, is a good example of a vernacular homestead once commonly found throughout Ireland. It is probable that the farmhouse was originally thatched as corrugated-iron sheeting was a common substitute for thatch. The original timber sash windows survive on the farmhouse.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
