What is recorded here

Detached three-bay two-storey house with attic, built c.1800, with lean-to porch to front and L-plan multiple-bay single-storey addition to northeast elevation, built c.1820. Half-hipped slate roof with brick chimneystacks and cast-iron roof-lights to main block and pitched slate roof with decorative ridge tiles and with rendered and brick chimneystacks to L-plan block. Limewashed rubble stone walls to main block and roughcast rendered walls to L-plan block. Square-headed openings having two-over-two pane timber sliding sash and replacement timber windows with stone sills. Timber battened door.
The main block of this house is representative of vernacular architecture in Ireland, with the half-hipped roof, irregular placement of chimneystacks and irregular fenestration all being features that are typical of that tradition. The latter L-plan block provides an interesting contrast to the original block, as it is more classically inspired and regular in form.
