What is recorded here
Detached three-bay single-storey house with dormer attic, built c.1880, with later porch (north) and later lean-to outbuilding to side (east). Recent extension to rear (south). Pitched artificial slate roof with rendered chimneystacks and uPVC rainwater goods. Painted rendered walls with timber eaves course. Corrugated-iron walls to porch. Square-headed openings with single and tripartite one-over-one and two-over-two timber sliding sash windows. Square-headed door opening with timber battened door. Outbuilding to side (east). Rendered and rubble limestone boundary walls.
This house, typical of modest rural dwellings of both Bere Island and the Beara Peninsula, retains much of its original form and style. The facade is enlivened through the retention of the timber sliding sash windows and corrugated-iron porch. Its siting in the landscape and its associated outbuilding, make a positive contribution to the architectural heritage of the island.
