Lissanisky House

Detached five-bay three-storey house over half-basement, built c.1770, with pedimented breakfront and with lower three-bay three-storey rear return. Hipped slate roofs with rendered chimneystacks and with carved eaves course and pediment. Roughcast rendered walls. Square-headed openings with three-over-three pane timber sliding sash windows to second floor, basement and some of rear, replacement uPVC elsewhere, all with cut limestone sills. Round-headed carved limestone doorcase having timber panelled door with sidelights, fluted lintel and ornate cobweb fanlight. Flight of steps leading to door. Outbuildings to site. Dressed limestone piers to site entrance.

A conspicuous feature north of the main road, this house adds interest to the landscape. The diminishing windows and elaborate doorcase are typical of Georgian architecture. The elaborate leaded fanlight is evidence of the quality craftsmanship of the eighteenth century.
