What is recorded here

Detached two-bay single-storey school with attic storey, built c.1820, having projecting gabled porch. Now in use as house. Pitched slate roofs with rendered chimneystacks. Roughcast rendered walls with square-headed openings having stone sills, double six-over-six pane timber sliding sash windows to front and replacement uPVC windows to gables. Triangular window inserted in east gable. Pointed-arch entrance with stone step and timber herringbone battened door.
This building is an interesting example of modest school houses in Ireland and is a notable feature within Castletown village. It retains much of its original form and this is enhanced by the retention of features such as the paired timber sash windows.

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