What is recorded here

Three-bay two-storey house, built c. 1820, having three-bay two-storey extension to rear (south) elevation. Hipped slate roof with rendered chimneystacks. Roughcast rendered walls. Square-headed openings having one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows and limestone sills. Round-headed opening with spoked fanlight over timber panelled door and flanking square-headed openings having one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows and limestone sills. Four-bay single-storey outbuilding to west with pitched slate roof and limestone copings. Roughcast rendered walls. Elliptical-headed carriage arches to east elevation. Square-headed opening with timber battened door to east. Square-headed opening to north elevation with replacement timber panelled door. Camber-headed door opening to west elevation.
This modest house retains much of its original form, including its regular and symmetrical façade. The elevation is enlivened by the round-headed doorway which is a further typical feature of the style. Prominently sited and retaining its associated outbuilding, the house forms a handsome architectural feature within the west Limerick countryside .
