What is recorded here

Former turntable, built in 1877 by the Midland Great Western Railway at Edenderry Station. Now disused. Comprising semi-circular random coursed limestone wall. Joist holes dispersed throughout walls.
The Midland Great Western Railway, which established the train station in Edenderry in 1877, played an integral role in the lives of local residents. The turntable, with its particular semi-circular shape, was used to rotate incoming engines in preparation for an outward journey. Unfortunately, little evidence of the turntable tracks has survived, but the stone structure remains extant.

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