Losset House

The saved account records: Three-bay two-storey house, built c.1860, having projecting bay to south end of front (east) elevation, forming return to rear, and with single and two-storey additions to rear, with recent conservatory.

The saved account records: Pitched slate roof with cut-stone barges and chimneystacks.

The saved account records: Three-bay single-storey outbuilding to north range of yard, rebuilt to west end, four-bay outbuilding to south range of yard, rebuilt to south elevation, both having pitched slate roofs, rubble stone walls, elliptical carriage arches, and square-headed window and door openings with timber fittings.

The saved account records: Snecked dressed stone walls and blind two-light windows to east gables, having chamfered stone surrounds and mullions.

Losset House matters for the exact reasons given in its official assessment, rather than merely because it is an old structure. The source records: This attractive stone house and its outbuildings retain their early character and form. Together they display skilled stone masonry and share many characteristics with nearby buildings of the Lough Fea estate, including double-light windows and extensive use of cut stone. The outbuilding gables flank the front elevation of the house and create a well proportioned composition. This explains what the place adds to local life, the street or the surviving built history.
