What is recorded here

Detached five-bay single-storey lobby entry thatched house, built c. 1790, having adjoining two-bay single-storey outbuilding to west elevation.

This traditional well maintained thatched house forms an important part of West Limerick's vernacular heritage, as identified by features such as its single-storey massing and steeply pitched thatched roof. The house presents an early aspect with much of the original form intact including aspects such as the arrangement of the openings, which retain an informal quality. Positioned such that the gable addresses the road, the house forms a pleasing feature in the landscape.
