What is recorded here

Outbuilding in Carlanstown kept the animals downstairs and their feed upstairs, reached by an outside staircase. A restaurant where the customers weigh half a ton and the pantry needs defending like a castle.

Two-bay two-storey outbuilding, built c.1820. Rubble stone walls with external concrete steps to first floor level of north gable. Pitched slate roof. Timber battened door set in opening with red brick dressings. Cast-iron diamond pane window. Roller door to double sized opening. Barrel roofed corrugated-iron barn with iron trusses to south-west. Outbuilding with limestone walls and pitched corrugated-iron roof to west.
Though the house which originally related to this group of outbuildings has been rebuilt, this farmyard retains a complex of outbuildings representative of the early nineteenth century. The functional design of the two-storey barn provided accommodation for animals at ground floor level and storage of feed in the loft. The variety of materials used in the construction of the outbuildings provides visual interest within the farmyard.
