What is recorded here
Attached two-storey house, built c. 1880, having three-bay first floor and four-bay ground floor, north bay having lower roof. Formerly also in use as shop, now disused. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks and some cast-iron rainwater goods. Painted rendered walls having painted render quoins, with raised lettering to front elevation. Square-headed window openings with painted moulded render surrounds and timber sliding sash windows, two-over-two pane to first floor and one-over-one pane to ground floor. Bipartite timber framed former shop window to south end of front elevation. Square-headed entrance opening having timber door with overlight and glazed sidelight.
This building adds interest to the streetscape, through its undulating roof line, varied windows and render lettering, the latter reminiscent of 1940s rural Irish shops and becoming rare. The lower part of the building may have originally been part of the neighbouring, older building, illustrating the organic growth of the village over time.
