Why it mattered
R. Tobin — Ballyduff matters for the exact reasons given in its official assessment, rather than merely because it is an old structure. The source records: This house is an attractive, modest-scale composition of simple proportions that has been well maintained to present an early aspect. The house is distinguished by the traditional rendered pubfront to right ground floor, together with the rendered dressings to the openings. The house retains important early salient features and materials, and contributes positively to the appearance of the streetscape in the centre of Ballyduff. This explains what the place adds to local life, the street or the surviving built history.
