Kilbragh

Detached L-plan two-storey house with three-bay façade and south-east elevation, reoriented and remodelled c. 1850. Hipped slate roof with brick chimneystacks, cast-iron rainwater goods and overhanging sheeted eaves. Smooth rendered walls. Square-headed window openings with limestone sills and timber sliding sash six-over-six pane windows. Variety of timber sliding sash and casement windows to rear elevations, barred to ground floor. Square-headed door opening with chamfered render surround, accessed by flight of limestone steps and having double-leaf timber panelled door and overlight. Two-storey outbuildings adjoin to west. Lawns to front of house and east of outbuildings, bounded by rubble limestone walls.

Charmingly situated in an elevated position, this simple elegant house with its attractive outbuildings and pump form a pleasant composition within the landscape. A restrained sense of grandeur is expressed in the unhindered symmetrical façade of the house neatly recessed between the projecting flight of steps below and overhanging eaves above. The essential character of the building complex has been preserved and it continues to form part of a working farm.
