Muckridge House

Detached three-bay two-storey over basement former country house with full-height bowed end-bays, built c. 1810, now in use as private house. Single-bay two-storey extension to north elevation. Rendered parapet, rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Painted rendered walls with cornice below parapet. Square-headed openings with replacement uPVC windows and limestone sills. Venetian door surround, comprising round-headed door opening flanked by sidelights, having rusticated render surround and moulded cornice. Stained glass fanlight and timber panelled and glazed door, with recent uPVC glazing to sidelights. Approached by tapering flight of limestone steps. Retaining interior features. Wrought-iron gates with cast-iron piers to north-east. Outbuildings to rear (west).

An imposing house, whose double-bowed facade makes for an unusual front elevation, bows being more commonly found on garden fronts. Set looking towards the sea, it forms a group of country houses with Mistletoe Castle and Heathfield Towers, built in close proximity to the north of Youghal.
