What is recorded here
Detached three-bay two-storey house, built c. 1920, with pair of bay windows to ground floor and porch set within. Continuous roof over canted bay windows supported by timber uprights. Timber windows to bay windows with small pane toplights. Segmented headed window openings with timber sash windows to first floor. Square-headed window opening with hoodmoulding to return. Pitched roof with rendered chimneystacks.
This house has many details which raise it above the averge. The retention of the bay windows to the ground floor with the small pane toplights and the use of the timber uprights for the porch is reminiscent of the architecture to be found in neaby Adare. Much of this work in Adare was carried out by William Clifford Smith and it is possible that he was reponsible for the work here. In addition, this house is also of interest in that it is set within close proximity to the former Methodist Church and may have had some associations with that former church.
