What is recorded here
The Mill House in Rathfarnham is squeezed between an older mill race and roads that arrived later. The house got there first, which makes the whole arrangement a three-storey version of refusing to move your elbow off the armrest.
Detached four-bay three-storey house, c.1810. Rendered walls. Doorway to side in later conservatory. Timber sash windows. Replacement hipped slate roof with pierced terracotta ridge tiles and large brick chimney stacks to south. Rubble boundary wall to street.
Stark and prominent Georgian house retaining much original fabric, penned in between older mill race and later roads, with an imposing presence along this stretch of road.
