What is recorded here

Detached three-bay two-storey house, built c.1930. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks and uPVC rainwater goods. Painted rendered walls. Square-headed openings with two-over-two timber sliding sash windows and painted concrete sills. Square-headed door openings with timber battened and timber glazed doors. Enclosed by rubble stone walls (south) with rendered piers and wrought-iron gate. Two-bay single-storey rubble stone outbuilding to north-east with replacement corrugated-iron roof, square-headed openings and timber battened doors.
The form of this building is in keeping with the housing style of Congested Districts Board, 1891-1923, which was subsequently absorbed into the Land Commission. The Congested Districts Board built houses, based on the traditional farmhouse, throughout rural areas in an attempt to improve living standards. It retains much of its original character and charm.
