What is recorded here

Detached hexagonal-plan former gate lodge to Jamestown House, built c.1830. Now derelict. Hipped slate roof and red brick chimneystack. Roughcast rendered limestone walls. Flat-headed window openings with tooled limestone sills and timber sash and casement windows. Ashlar gate piers with wrought-iron gates to south of gate lodge.
Though this former gate lodge is derelict and has lost many of its original features, its unusual hexagonal form is of particular interest. The gate lodge forms a group with the fine entrance gates adjacent and other demesne structures in the former Jamestown House Estate, former home of the O'Beirne family.

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