What is recorded here
Detached three-bay one- and a half-storey lobby entry thatched house, built c. 1800. Half-hipped thatched roof with red brick chimneystack. Roughcast rendered walls. Square-headed openings to all elevations having painted sills and two-over-two pane and one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows. Square-headed opening to front (west) elevation having timber battened door with slate step. Rubble stone boundary wall to north of house.
A typical example of a style of vernacular architecture which was once prevalent and is now increasingly rare in the Irish countryside. The retention of the thatched roof and timber sliding sash windows is significant.
