What is recorded here
Detached two-bay single-storey ticket office with canopy, built c.1910, now vacant. Pitched corrugated-iron roof with cast-iron corbels and cast-iron and uPVC rainwater goods. Painted rendered plinth walls, with corrugated-iron to upper section. Square-headed openings with timber sliding shutter, and timber fixed pane and casement windows with timber sills and surrounds. Square-headed door opening with timber and corrugated-iron sliding hanging door with cast-iron fixings. Set on stone and brick platform with stone steps.
This building is a reminder of early twentieth century boat travel in the area and is also noteworthy due to its corrugated-iron construction, a material which is becoming increasingly rare throughout Ireland. The retention of its original form and unique features, including a hanging door and ticket window, make it an attractive coastal addition.
