What is recorded here
Detached two-bay single-storey over raised basement signal box, built c. 1850, with timber-clad porch c.1970 and steel stairs giving access to upper level on west elevation. Hipped slate roof. Snecked limestone walls with dressed limestone string course and red brick to upper level of trackside and end elevations. Square-headed window openings with concrete sills and replacement uPVC windows. Square-headed door openings to lower level and to porch, having steel panelled and uPVC doors respectively.
This signal station is an integral part of Limerick Junction Station and thereby an important constituent of the group of railway structures in the area which are historically important as a reminder of the nineteenth-century heyday of railway travel and transport.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
