The Old Dispensary

Detached four-bay two-storey house, built c.1880, with gabled porch. Hipped slate roof with render brick chimneystacks. Rubble limestone walls with dressed stone quoins having red walls to porch. Red brick surrounds and limestone sills to window openings. Ranges of red brick and rubble stone outbuildings to the rear, ranged around a central courtyard.

The building is a colourful addition at the main road junction in Donore village. The red brick contrasts with the rubble limestone adding textural interest to the site. The building retains many interesting features and materials, such as the slate roof and related outbuildings to the rear.
