What is recorded here
Detached three-bay single-storey gate lodge, built 1820, on an L-shaped plan with single-bay single-storey return to north. Pitched slate roof on an L-shaped plan with clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stacks, rendered coping, and cast-iron rainwater goods on rendered eaves. Unpainted roughcast walls. Square-headed window openings with cut-limestone sills, and timber casement windows. Square-headed door opening with timber door. Set back from road in grounds shared with Kilrush House.
Exhibiting unassuming architectural design aspirations a modest-scale gate lodge retains the original form and massing together with most of the historic fabric. Forming a neat self-contained group with an associated gateway (12401310/KK-13-10) the resulting assemblage makes a pleasing visual statement at the entrance to the grounds of the Kilrush House estate.
