house

Terraced three-bay two-storey house, c.1860, retaining original fenestration. Reroofed, c.1960. Pitched roof with replacement artificial slate, c.1960, clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stacks, and iron rainwater goods on overhanging rendered eaves. Unpainted rendered, ruled and lined walls with rendered quoins to ends, and moulded stringcourse to first floor. Square-headed window openings with rendered sills (on saw tooth-detailed aprons to first floor), and 6/6 timber sash windows (having wrought iron railings to ground floor). Square-headed door opening with moulded surround, and timber panelled door. Road fronted with concrete footpath to front having limestone slab to entrance.(ii) Attached three-bay single-storey rubble stone creamery, c.1860, to left (north-east) with square-headed carriageway. Now disused. Pitched slate roof with clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stack, and no rainwater goods. Unpainted lime rendered walls over random rubble stone construction. Square-headed door openings with timber lintels, and timber boarded doors. Square-headed carriageway with painted corrugated-iron door.

A well-appointed, modest-scale house that retains most of its original form and character, together with important salient features and materials. Subtle rendered dressings, including profiled aprons to some window openings, enhance the architectural design quality of the composition. The house forms an appealing element of the streetscape in the centre of Millstreet. The attendant outbuilding is of particular significance for its original intended use as a creamery, representing a commercial and industrial venture historically practised in the locality.
