Hardingville HouseCountry house · 421 yd

Explorer Tom Hardingville House in Coolnagour is a Georgian dream from 1790 that’s currently disused, probably catching up on sleep. It has camber-headed sash windows and a spoked fanlight that look like they’re staring right at you. Balance is good. Snap the entrance piers for me!

Concentric enclosure in DoonyConcentric enclosure · 463 yd
