What is recorded here

Detached four-bay single-storey vernacular house, built c.1800, having entrance porch to front (north) elevation. Pitched thatched roof having raised scolloped ridge, and painted rendered chimneystack. Painted roughcast rendered walls. Square-headed window openings having painted stone sills and replacement timber windows. Square-headed door opening having timber battened half-door. Painted smooth rendered boundary walls to garden to front.

The low elevation and chimneystack, thick walls and small openings are typical of the vernacular tradition in Ireland. Once common throughout the countryside and small villages, thatched buildings have become increasingly rare, and the survival of this example is notable. It retains its original form and structure. The modest porch is a typical traditional modification.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
