Castlemartyr House — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Detached three-bay single-storey former gate lodge, built c. 1850, now in use as house, having two bays to north recessed under roof forming verandah, and with recent full-width lean-to extension to rear (east) elevation. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystack and decorative timber eaves. Rubble stone walls, render removed, with brick quoins. Square-headed openings with brick block-and-start surrounds, having two-over-two pane timber sliding sash window, fixed window, and half-glazed timber panelled door. Rendered square-profile piers with wrought-iron pedestrian gate to site boundary.

Modest size and evidence of conscious design distinguish this as a former gate lodge to a big house. It forms a group with the other formerly demesne related structures. Distinctive form with verandah entrance, enhanced by red brick dressings. Retains much fabric including roof slates and timber sash windows.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
