Detached three-bay single-storey former railway goods store, built c. 1860, having projecting canopy to north elevation and single-bay lower porch to east, c. 1890, with flight of limestone steps and lean-to extension. Now in use as store. Pitched slate roof to north, catsliding to north side to provide canopy with timber brackets supported on stone corbels, with cut-stone copings. Rubble limestone walls with cut-stone and brick dressings to openings. Round-headed vehicular entrances to gables, with brick surrounds and recent doors. Square-headed openings to north elevation, with brick relieving arches, timber lintels and timber battened doors. Segmental-headed window opening in gables with brick dressings and metal windows. Queen-post timber roof to interior. Ramp to east having stone walls.
This former goods shed is an integral part of the former Castletownroche and Killavullen Railway Station complex. It is significant for its historical association with the former Mallow-Fermoy line which later connected with the Waterford-Rosslare line. The building played a vital role in the transport of goods, making it an important part of the social and economic history of the area.
