What is recorded here

Detached ten-bay single-storey goods shed, c.1850, with three-bay end elevations. Now derelict and roofless. Coursed rubble limestone walls having tooled capping to long sides. Segmental-headed window openings to long sides having tooled limestone surrounds and sills, and metal multi-paned windows. Round carriage arch entrances to gable ends having tooled stone surrounds, one having metal door. Square-headed door openings to east gable, having metal doors. Remains of windows to middle of gable ends at loft level.
This goods shed with its simple and functional design is a noteworthy part of Athenry Railway Station. The finely executed stonework, carriage arch and tooled limestone window surrounds, show that though modest, this building was skilfully designed.
