Steeply pitched thatched roof with raised ridge having rendered rebuilt chimneystack. Painted rendered walls. Square-headed window openings having replacement timber casement windows. Square-headed door openings having timber glazed doors. Limestone rubble and painted concrete block enclosing walls. Shed to north having corrugated-iron single-pitch roof and double-leaf timber battened doors.
This modest house is an interesting addition to the rural landscape. Though some original features and materials have been replaced, this thatched house is a good representative of the vernacular tradition in Ireland.
