Detached single-storey over basement head gardener's house, built c.1840. Hipped and pitched slate roof with ashlar limestone chimneystack. Rendered walls with timber sash windows. Four-bay two-storey extension attached to east elevation, with single-storey extensions to the north elevation. Rubble limestone boundary walls and outbuildings to the site.
Although the original form of this head gardener's house is obscured by the substantial extensions on all sides, it retains some original features and materials, such as the ashlar limestone chimneystack. This head gardener's house forms part of an interesting group of Loughcrew demesne-related structures, with the Ionic portico, workers' houses, church, stables, graveyard and gate lodges.
