A good quality and highly picturesque early nineteenth-century estate worker's house associated with Tullynally Castle (15400321). It is well-built using good quality roughly dressed limestone and retains its early form, character and much of its early fabric. The form and the location of this appealing structure, adjacent to the entrance to the walled garden, suggests that it may have been originally constructed as a gardener's house. Having been well-maintained this structure forms part of an extensive group of structures associated with Tullynally Castle and is an integral element of the architectural heritage of Westmeath in its own right.
