What is recorded here

Worker's house in Corkagh Demesne belongs to a row of five homes that became park offices. Five households escaped living beside their colleagues, only for the buildings themselves to be given jobs.
Group of five terraced three-bay single-storey former houses, c.1840, now in use as park offices. Roughcast rendered walls. Replacement timber casement windows with stone sills. Replacement timber panelled doors. Pitched slate roof with both brick and smooth rendered chimney stacks.
These former houses are part of a group of outbuildings associated with the past Corkagh House. These simple structures have a practical, modest character and are an important reminder of the history of the surrounding parkland and the heritage of the Clondalkin area.
