What is recorded here

Detached three-bay two-storey parochial house, built c.1875, with flat-roofed extension and outbuilding to rear. Set within the grounds of Saint Rynagh's church. Hipped slate roof with terracotta ridge tiles and cresting, rendered chimneystacks with terracotta pots. Ruled-and-lined render walls with stressed quoins. Segmental-headed window openings with stucco hoodmouldings, uPVC replacement windows with stone sills to the first floor. Canted bay windows to the ground floor. Segmental-headed door opening with timber panelled door, glazed overlight and sidelights with stucco hoodmoulding. Metal gates set within ruled-and-lined rendered walls give access to rear site. Roughcast rendered outbuilding to rear.
This parochial house is nestled in the beautiful grounds to the rear of Saint Rynagh's church. A sweeping pathway with roses leads up to hooded segmental-arched door opening, which is flanked by canted bay windows. The stucco mouldings above the windows and door add a particularly attractive aspect to the architecture of this late nineteenth-century building. The parochial house plays an active social and religious role within the community of Banagher.
