house

End-of-terrace two-bay two-storey house with three-storey elevation to rear (south-east), built c.1800. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks and uPVC rainwater goods. Roughcast rendered wall to front (north-west) elevation with slate hanging to side (north-east) and rear. Square-headed window openings with stone sills and raised render surrounds to front elevation openings. Six-over-three pane timber sliding sash windows to first floor and six-over-six pane timber sliding sash window to ground floor. uPVC casement windows to side and rear elevations. Square-headed door openings. Raised render surround to front elevation door opening having timber panelled door and quarry glazed overlight. Replacement glazed timber door to rear. Rendered rubble stone boundary wall to north-east with square-headed door opening and timber battened door. House fronts onto a narrow street with three-bay two-storey outbuilding to north-west having pitched corrugated-iron roof, rubble stone walls and square-headed openings.

Built as part of a terrace of five houses, originally known as "Lander's Terrace", this house retains much of its original character and charm. The duel aspect of the terrace, with its rendered front facing the sheltered street, and its wonderfully textured slate front facing the exposed sea, allows it to make a notable contribution to the local area, whether seen from land or sea. Retaining many original features, including timber sliding sash windows, panelled doors and overlights, the terrace is particularly notable for its slate hanging, a feature which was once found throughout exposed areas of Munster, but which is now sadly hard to find.
