Ratharney Christian Brethren Meeting House

Detached two-bay single-storey single-cell Christian Brethren meeting house, built 1910. Now disused. Pitched corrugated-iron roof with timber bargeboards and cast-iron rainwater goods. Corrugated-iron-covered walls. Square-headed window openings with fixed-pane timber windows having lattice glazing bars. Timber boarded interior with exposed collared timber roof construction. Set in own grounds.

This meeting house, built by Isaiah Moxham (1850-1933) using cost-effective corrugated-iron, is an unusual feature in the rural landscape north of Abbeyshrule. Although no longer in use, it survives largely intact and retains much of its original fabric. There is little superfluous ornamentation and the meeting house relies on lattice glazing patterns and timber finials for architectural "effect".
