What is recorded here
Detached five-bay single-storey vernacular house, built c. 1800, with windbreak to entrance and flat-roofed single-storey garage extension to south-west. Thatched roof with raised gable to south-west and hipped to north-east, with red brick chimneystack. Painted smooth rendered battered walls with rendered plinth, stone-clad edging to ends of front elevation, and rubble limestone walling visible to south-west gable. Square-headed window openings with painted rendered sills and replacement uPVC windows. Square-headed door opening with replacement timber door. Wrought-iron pedestrian gate to north-east of site.
This house is an attractive example of the vernacular tradition in Ireland. Its original character has been preserved in the retention of features and materials such as a thatch roof and battered walls. Vernacular structures are becoming increasingly rare in both urban and rural areas in Ireland.
