Pottlerath House

Farmyard complex, c.1825, including:(i) Attached three-bay two-storey outbuilding. Hipped gabled slate roof with terracotta ridge tiles, and cast-iron rainwater goods on rendered eaves. Unpainted rendered walls. Square-headed window openings with cut-limestone sills, and two-over-two timber sash windows. One pointed-arch window opening with cut-limestone sill, and fixed-pane fitting incorporating Y-mullions forming bipartite pointed-arch arrangement having pivot sections. Square-headed door openings with timber panelled doors.(ii) Detached five-bay two-storey rubble stone outbuilding with series of five elliptical-headed carriageways to ground floor. Reroofed, c.1975. Pitched roof with replacement corrugated-iron, c.1975, clay ridge tiles, and no rainwater goods surviving on rendered eaves. Random rubble limestone walls. Square-headed window openings with no sills, and red brick solider course voussoirs (now blocked-up with random rubble limestone infill). Series of five elliptical-headed carriageways to ground floor with rubble limestone voussoirs, and wrought iron fittings.

A collection of appealing middle-size agricultural outbuildings augmenting the group and setting values of the Pottlerath (House) estate. A Gothic-style window recalling a feature characteristic of ecclesiastical architecture (suggesting the possibility that the fitting was salvaged from the nearby Templemaraha Church (c.1250)) distinguishes the architectural design value of one range while a further range displaying a utilitarian appearance makes a pleasing visual impression in the grounds. Each range retaining most of the original attributes the resulting assemblage contributes positively to the character of the site.
