What is recorded here

Attached three-bay two-storey house, built c. 1800. Pitched corrugated-iron roof with red brick chimneystack. Rendered walls with square-headed openings, those to the first floor having fixed timber windows and cut stone sills, those to the ground floor having two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows and cut stone sills. Square-headed opening with timber battened door.
The small openings and widely spaced proportions are typical vernacular features. Buildings of this type were once common throughout Ireland, but are now increasingly rare, particularly in urban areas. The corrugated-iron roof indicates that this structure, together with its neighbour to the west, may have originally been thatched.

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