Tinnacross House is a modest farmhouse and yard which retains many intact features and materials that make it an architecturally significant complex. As a result the complex is a notable example of traditional Irish farms. Furthermore, the site is of archaeological significance as within the house's grounds is a ruined mediaeval church.
