What is recorded here

Detached four-bay single-storey house, built c.1900. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystack and cast-iron rainwater goods. Roughcast rendered walls with rendered plinth. Square-headed window openings with render sills, having one-over-one pane margined timber sash windows. Square-headed door opening with glazed timber door.
A valuable, almost intact addition to the local architectural heritage. Built for a landless labourer on an acre of land, it is representative of a type which was built through out Ireland by local authorities following the passing of the various Land Acts from 1880 into the first decades of the twentieth century.
