A well proportioned house on a steep elevated site that is visible from a distance and can be seen in oblique views on approach. It was built to serve Saint Thomas's Church (Killinagh), formerly adjacent to the south-west, now demolished. Its character is enhanced by the retention of traditional features including the sash windows, timber panelled shutters, and handsome internal door screen.
